Food Service Organisation

Welcome

Today we are going to begin our introduction to Food Service Organisations

What is a food service organisation?

The food service industry includes services and businesses that prepare and serve food outside the home

Food organisation involves effective practice in staff organisation, service methods, preparation and control of resources

Legislation and regulation is very important factors in food service organisation particularly in hygiene and safety!

Design of the workspace and movement of people and goods is known as 'workflow'

Staff organisation and methods of operation and service vary in different

hospitality businesses depending on the particular requirements of the business

In this unit we will also investiage practices and procedures used and the importance of liaising with other departments within the business

Do you work, or have you worked in a food service organisation?

Organisational Structure Example

The purpose of an organisation structure is to help the organisation to achieve its aims and objectives and employees to complete their work effectively and efficiently.

An organisation structure allocates employees designated work roles and responsibilities and helps management to coordinate and control activities.

Activity: Using the A4 page in front of you, using your own knowledge of working within these organisations, draw and label your organisational structure within your department and highlight your role. 

Only draw the roles that you are aware of.

If you do not work or have never worked work alongside someone who has.

Feedback an explanation of the drawing to the class

Using the post-it notes in front of you answer the questions and stick to the wall –

I’m going to give you a list of ‘terms’ and I want you to research them on your phone or computer.

Write down your answer on a post-it note. Once completed stick to the wall.
