Kitchen Tonic is an RSPH-registered training centre run by a BSc (Hons) food scientist with day-to-day responsibility for UK hospitality compliance. Our live RSPH courses are taught and assessed against the official RSPH specification (Ofqual Qualification Number 603/2395/4 and equivalents).

Frequently Asked Questions
For most food handlers (chefs, kitchen porters, front-of-house serving food) Level 2 is the standard. Supervisors and head chefs are expected to hold Level 3 (Supervising Food Safety). Quality, technical or operations leads in manufacturing should hold Level 4. Level 1 is awareness-only and is generally reserved for staff who do not handle open food.
UK food safety law does not name a specific qualification, but Retained Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 requires every food handler to be trained, instructed or supervised to a level appropriate to their role. EHOs and insurers expect to see documented training — typically Level 2 for food handlers and Level 3 for supervisors.
The RSPH-accredited routes (live webinar, classroom or in-house) are Ofqual-regulated qualifications issued by the Royal Society for Public Health. They are the regulated qualifications most EHOs and insurers expect to see. Our online self-paced courses cover the same syllabus content and meet EC 852/2004 training criteria, but the certificate is issued by KitchenTonic and is not Ofqual-regulated. Choose RSPH if your employer or contract requires a regulated qualification; choose online for speed and flexibility.
