Meat and Poultry Level 2 Pathway
The Meat and Poultry Level 2 pathway is for those working in processing and manufacturing roles, or sales/service support, in a meat and poultry organisation.
The Steering Group responsible for leading on the review of this Apprenticeship has recommended a brand new apprenticeship qualification specification be developed to deliver the technical requirements for Meat and Poultry occupations at L2.
In summary, the specification will require participants to achieve qualification units that deliver against at least 14 of the current National Occupational Standards or underpinning knowledge units as follows:
- 4 from Mandatory Group A
- At least 4 from the Meat & Poultry Industry Group B
- At least 4 underpinning knowledge units from Group D
- The remaining units can be taken from Optional Groups B, C or D
The following questions and pages will take you through these and other requirements in more detail.
Mandatory Group A
| Title |
| Maintain workplace food safety standards in food and drink operations |
| Work safely in food manufacture |
| Principles of HACCP based food safety systems |
| Use knives in food and drink operations |
- Are you happy with the proposed mandatory units in Group A?
