This formative assessment is to be used during your learning for the unit SITXFSA005 - Use Hygienic
Practices for Food Safety.
Formative assessments are designed for learning. Rather than assessing the learning itself, it is used
to assist your learning.
They are designed as a practice for you similar to homework. They assist you to learn.
Formative assessments can be done either as an:
Individual
In a group
With a partner
With the whole class
There are a few different methods of formative assessment. These include:
Summaries and Reflections - Learners stop and reflect, make sense of what they have
heard or read, derive personal meaning from their learning experiences, and/or
increase their metacognitive skills. These require that the learner use content-specific
language.
Lists, Charts, and Graphic Organisers - Learners will organise information, make
connections, and note relationships through the use of various graphic organisers.
Visual Representations of Information - Learners will use both words and pictures to
make connections and increase memory, facilitating retrieval of information later on.
This "dual coding" helps trainers address classroom diversity, preferences in learning
style, and different ways of "knowing."
Collaborative Activities - Learners have the opportunity to move and/or communicate
with others as they develop and demonstrate their understanding of concepts.
As you work through these assessments, think about how each question or activity helps you to
understand the concepts and learning more effectively.

Learners should answer the following or perform the tasks using the skills and knowledge being
taught during class presentations. Answers should reflect their understanding of the learning.
Answers have no word limit, and each learner should provide their own information even when
group or class activities are performed.
1.
What is the meaning of contaminant and contamination?
A contaminant is any substance that can make food unsafe to eat, such as bacteria, chemicals, or foreign
objects. Contamination is the presence of these harmful substances in food, making it unsafe for
consumption.
2.
What is HACCP?
HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points. It is a systematic approach to food safety
that identifies, evaluates, and controls hazards that could pose a risk to food safety.
3.
Why should you have HACCP food safety programs?
HACCP programs help prevent foodborne illnesses by identifying potential hazards and implementing
controls to mitigate them. They ensure food safety and compliance with regulatory requirements.
4.
What must a food safety program contain?
A food safety program must include procedures for hazard identification, risk assessment, control
measures, monitoring procedures, corrective actions, verification processes, and record-keeping.
5.
What is food safety handling?
Food safety handling involves practices and procedures that ensure food is stored, prepared, and served
in a manner that prevents contamination and reduces the risk of foodborne illness.

6.
What are the three (3) main types of contamination?
The three main types of contamination are biological (e.g., bacteria, viruses), chemical (e.g., pesticides,
cleaning agents), and physical (e.g., hair, glass).
7.
How can cross-contamination occur?
Cross-contamination can occur when harmful bacteria or substances are transferred from one surface or
food item to another, often through improper handling, unclean equipment, or direct contact.
8.
What are bacteria?
Bacteria are microscopic organisms that can cause food spoilage and foodborne illnesses. They thrive in
certain conditions and can multiply rapidly, leading to contamination.
9.
What are the symptoms of food poisoning?
Symptoms of food poisoning include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach cramps, fever, and headaches.
These symptoms can vary in severity depending on the type of contaminant.
10.
What is the danger zone?
The danger zone is the temperature range between 5°C (41°F) and 60°C (140°F), where bacteria can
grow rapidly. Food should be kept out of this temperature range to prevent bacterial growth.
11.
What are some types of high-risk food?
High-risk foods include meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, cooked rice and pasta, and ready-to-eat
foods like salads and sandwiches, which are prone to bacterial growth

12.
What are the consequences of breaching the Food Safety Act and its laws and regulations?
Breaching food safety laws can result in severe consequences, including fines, business closure, legal action,
and damage to reputation. It can also lead to foodborne illness outbreaks.
13.
When does poor practice occur?
Poor practice occurs when food safety guidelines are not followed, such as improper hand washing,
incorrect food storage, cross-contamination, and failure to maintain cleanliness.
14.
What are the most common methods of corrective actions?
Common corrective actions include discarding contaminated food, re-cleaning and sanitizing equipment,
retraining staff, and revising procedures to prevent recurrence.
15.
What are some food-borne diseases?
Food-borne diseases include salmonellosis, E. coli infection, listeriosis, and norovirus infection, all
caused by consuming contaminated food.
16.
What are some physical hazards?
Physical hazards in food can include foreign objects like hair, glass, metal shavings, plastic pieces, and stones,
which can cause injury or illness if ingested.
17.
How can pathogens be controlled?
Pathogens can be controlled through proper cooking, maintaining clean and sanitized surfaces and
equipment, proper hand washing, avoiding cross-contamination, and following food safety guidelines.

Symptoms include vomiting, diarrhea, fever, sore throat with fever, and any skin infections or wounds.
These can lead to contamination if the person handles food.
21.
What are some bad personal habits to avoid when working with food?
Bad habits to avoid include not washing hands, touching face or hair, smoking, eating or drinking while
handling food, and not wearing appropriate protective clothing.
22.

and level of exposure to food.
24.
What items on a person can harbour bacteria?
Items that can harbor bacteria include jewelry, watches, mobile phones, pens, and clothing, especially if
not regularly cleaned.
25.
Why should you prevent unnecessary contact with ready-to-eat food?
Preventing unnecessary contact reduces the risk of contamination from hands, clothing, or other surfaces
that may carry harmful bacteria.
26.
What is a standard cleaning process for pack down?
A standard cleaning process includes removing food debris, washing surfaces with soap and water,
sanitizing with a suitable disinfectant, and ensuring all equipment is clean and dry before storage.
27.

You should wash your hands before handling food, after using the restroom, after touching raw meat or
poultry, after coughing or sneezing, and after handling garbage.
28.
How should appropriate hand washing facilities be designed, constructed, and located?
Hand washing facilities should be easily accessible, have clean running water, soap, and disposable paper
towels or hand dryers. They should be designed to ensure hands-free operation, if possible, and located close
to food preparation and serving areas.
