License for cafe work?

Post by Tiina_Finn23 » Fri Mar 16, 2018 5:33 pm

So I'm living in Finland and looking for work. I knew it would be tough and take some time and luckily I'm being supported by my husband while I try to find something. I've registered at the job centre and have been applying for all sorts, online, mostly office work. I've some experience in the service industry so I thought about applying for a position in a cafe but it required a license. I remember hearing something about this before but google is letting me down. Do I need a license or some sort of training before I can work in the food industry or is it only certain places where this is necessary? And where can I get this license?

Thanks in advance for any help on this matter!

* EDIT/UPDATE I have found https://alcoholpassport.fi for working with alcohol and https://hygienepassport.fi/hygieniapassi for working with food but would appreciate any more input on whether it's worth investing in these just in case I get a job offer in a bar, restaurant or cafe.

This is required for the handling of any non packaged foods. All restaurants, cafes, and other food service establishments require it.

If the place serves alchohol, you will also need this
