In recent years, stringent food safety standards and strict hygiene regulations have been established to ensure that all food prepared and sold in the hospitality and catering sector is safe for consumption. Health and safety is vitally important; and hotels, restaurants, cafes and catering outlets must enforce strict guidelines in the workplace and complete regular health and safety and hygiene checks. Due diligence must be taken, not only to comply with health and safety law and HACCP principles, but also to ensure the safety of employees and consumers alike. Within the hospitality and catering sector, professional health, safety and hygiene training for staff will result in a safer working environment, which is ultimately better for business! Food allergies are a major cause for concern and it is extremely important to check all the contents of a dish if asked by a customer who has a food allergy. Accurate and up-to-date ingredient information must be displayed and regularly checked. Effective cleaning regimes should also be observed, recorded and reviewed so that the cleaning schedule is thorough and strict standards are sustained.
