Food hygiene ratings now linked to licencing conditions by a local authority.

There has been increasing moves for food business owners to display their food hygiene rating scores. At present, this is mandatory in Wales.

Having a good hygiene rating score is always good for business.  Every food business should really aspire to have and maintain good scores.

One local authority has decided to make it mandatory for certain food businesses to display their score. This would be connected to licensing conditions of the premises. Read full article from here:

Quote from article “Renewed licences will only be given to operators who comply and those who fail to meet standards could be forced to close as a result.

All premises will be required to achieve a FHIS pass within three months of a licence being granted, and any who get an ‘improvement required’ will be given a month to clean up their act.

  A good food hygiene rating is increasing becoming necessary and quite easy to attain. If you are struggling to obtain a good score then perhaps you might want to consider approaching a food safety consultant or food safety auditor.
