UKHospitality, in partnership with the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and Food Standards Scotland (FSS), has launched an updated version of the industry-recognised hygiene standards guide for all caterers.
The guide, sponsored by Food Alert, is the only recognised document for hygiene standards for the catering sector used by industry and enforcement.
It sets out advice and guidance for caterers on complying with their legal obligations. It continues to be applicable across the entire UK, meaning there can be a consistent and straightforward approach for environmental health officers and companies operating across nations.
UKHospitality Chief executive Kate Nicholls said: "Maintaining our high standards of food safety and hygiene is a top priority for all hospitality venues, and this industry guide is the gold standard for the industry to get their advice and guidance on complying with legislation. It is essential reading for everyone in hospitality with a catering offering. As the rules and regulations continue to change, it was important for us to review, update and relaunch the guide."
