What is the Food Hygiene Rating Scheme
Food hygiene ratings are a snapshot of the standards of food hygiene found at the time of inspection. It is the responsibility of the business to comply with food hygiene law at all times.
A food safety officer from the local authority is tasked with inspecting a business to check that it follows food hygiene law so that the food is safe to eat.
At the inspection, the officer will check the following three elements.
- How hygienically the food is handled – how it is prepared, cooked, re-heated, cooled and stored
- The physical condition of the business –including cleanliness, layout, lighting, ventilation, pest control and other facilities
- How the business manages ways of keeping food safe, looking at processes, training and systems to ensure good hygiene is maintained. The officer can then assess the level of confidence in standards being maintained in the future.
The rating scale
The hygiene standards found at the time of inspection are then rated on a scale. 5 is top of the scale, this means the hygiene standards are very good and fully comply with the law. 0 is at the bottom of the scale, this means urgent improvement is necessary.
To get the top rating, businesses must do well in all three elements mentioned above.
