Quick answer
A typhoid vaccination is a health record some employers or local councils ask for. It does not replace a KKM-recognised food handler course certificate.
Key facts
- Who asks
- Some employers and local councils
- Not a substitute
- The injection does not replace the course certificate
A typhoid vaccination is a health record that some workplaces request before a person handles food.
What to bring
Keep the vaccination card if your employer asks for it. You still need the food handler course listed on the class schedule.
What to do next
Pick a date on the class list, read the course, and later check a certificate.
Typhoid vaccination does not replace class attendance.
Questions
Is the typhoid vaccination the same as the course certificate?
No. The vaccination is a health record. The certificate comes from completing recognised training.
