With back-to-school shopping in full swing, shoppers are turning to the deli for easy meals and freshly sliced sandwich meats. Avoid shrinkage and injuries by learning or revisiting key equipment in the deli department. With four courses that each focus on an individual component of the deli, the Retail Learning Institute has the tools you need to stay safe and productive during this busy season.
Course Descriptions:
Display cases, located within your store’s deli area, showcase a wide array of cold or hot products. Cases may be either full-service, requiring the assistance of a trained associate to fill a customer’s order, or self-service, allowing the customer to pick and choose from the products available. In this course, you’ll learn about full and self-service cases, and how they keep displayed food safe for consumption.
In the deli department, you will use many different types of equipment to prep, cook and hold prepared foods. Some of this equipment is easy to use, while some may require special attention. Always follow your store’s policy when handling and operating equipment. In this course, you’ll learn about commonly used equipment and the purpose it serves within the deli department.
The food slicer is one of the most recognized pieces of equipment in the deli department. Not surprising, as deli clerks use it throughout their shift to fill customer orders. However, to use any piece of equipment safely, you must familiarize yourself with it and how to use it. In this course, you’ll learn about a food slicer — specifically its components and the proper way to operate and clean one.
Knives are used often in numerous departments of your grocery store. Knives are useful tools for preparing food, but they can also be dangerous. Arming yourself with knife safety tips and knowledge will educate you on knife safety and increase your confidence while working. This will in turn decrease the chances of accidental injury. In this course you will learn some basics about knife safety, which knives are appropriate for different tasks, cleaning and sanitation.
Help your employees gain the knowledge they need to succeed in the deli by enrolling in Deli Equipment courses at the Retail Learning Institute.
