ASSESSMENT A - KNOWLEDGE REVIEW LEARNER INSTRUCTIONS Answer all the questions. On completion, submit your assessment via the LMS to your assessor. This task is used to determine your current level of understanding of the topics covered in this topic and does not contribute to your final assessment result. Your assessor may use the results of this task to identify further training needs or to determine your readiness for assessment. Should you require ‘reasonable xadjustment’ to complete this task, discuss the options with your assessor. Reasonable adjustment means modifications or changes are made to an assessment to take into account an individual learner’s needs. You will require access to the learner resource for this unit, the internet and a computer (if submitting via LMS) or a pen (if submitting hard copy). 1. What quality checks should you complete on any food being selected for packaging? (a) Freshness, chemical contamination, cleanliness of the packaging container. (b) All food should be tested for nutritional value and correctness of ingredients to ensure accurate labelling procedures later. (c ) Freshness, visual appeal, portion sizes, potential contamination. (d) That food items and their ingredients were correctly prepared and stored prior to packaging. 2. You have been asked to package fresh pasta for sale to customers. When you remove the cling wrap covering the bulk container, you notice an unpleasant smell and black spots on some of the pasta. The internal date stamp states it was made three days ago. What should you do next? Express your concerns with a higher-level staff member and discuss how to resolve the issue. Discuss the issue with a colleague to work out how best to resolve the problem. Take action based on the results of your discussion. 3. Which factor influences what packaging material you select for specific types of foods? (a) If customers or staff are handling the packaging and the long-term effects of storage. (b) The potential for contamination of high-risk hazardous foods and storage requirements. (c) The visual presentation of the food item, permeability and ability to recycle.

4. How do the dimensions of the packaging affect its visual presentation? (a) Oversized containers are difficult for the customer to manage opening and can lead to complaints. (b) Incorrectly shaped packaging means the packaged items cannot be displayed, stored or transported easily. (c) If the dimensions are inappropriate the portion of food can look small or the food looks like it has been squashed into the packaging. (d) The packaging must be large enough for garnish and accompaniments to be included so customers feel they are getting value for money. 5. What is the difference between labelling guidelines outlined in the Food Standards Code and those required by the organisation? (a) The Code details what types of foods must be labelled and where the labels are located, whereas organisational specifications relate to internal codes. (b ) The Code details mandatory labelling requirements. Organisational labels provide additional, non-mandatory, information. (c) Organisational standards outline information to be written on a label. The Code’s guidelines describe food safety procedures to be followed when packaging the food. (d) Organisational standards are mandatory, whereas the Code’s guidelines are not. 6. Is this statement true or false? One procedure you can follow to reduce the risk of food items becoming contaminated during the packaging process is to keep foods awaiting packaging covered at all times. True. False. 7. How can you reduce the risk of food becoming contaminated by the packaging environment? Clean all packaging, storage areas and benches on a daily basis using hot water and detergent. Clean and sanitise all surfaces, utensils and packaging equipment between different tasks.

What do you do if you identify unsafe or faulty equipment? (a) Complete a maintenance request form and submit it to the maintenance department. (b) Rectify the issue if you have the ability and authority to do so, otherwise report the problem using appropriate procedures and documentation. (c) Remove the item of equipment from the work area and clearly label it with what the problem is so it will be followed up. (d) Rectify the issue to the best of your ability. If you are unable to fix it, label the item so others will not use it and report the problem to your immediate supervisor. 10. You have just completed packaging lasagne for distribution to an outlet.
