What is your hygiene rating?
MORE THAN 200 LOCAL AUTHORITIES HAVE JOINED THE FHRS
Chesterfield Borough Council, Derby City Council, Knowsley Council and Nottingham City Council have rolled out the Agency's Food Hygiene Rating Scheme. Nearly 200 local authorities in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are now publishing nearly 170,000 ratings at food.gov.uk/ratings.
Other local authorities will be rolling out the scheme over the next few months.
The Food Hygiene Rating Scheme helps you choose where to eat out or shop for food by giving you information about the hygiene standards in restaurants, pubs, cafés, takeaways, hotels and other places you eat, as well as in supermarkets and other food shops.
If you think that your business deserves a better rating, then let us know as we would be pleased to help your food business get that exclusive 'five' rating.
Please contact us.

Machin & Toplass
Blog bits:
We are receiving an increase in bedbugs problems, due to people travelling more in their work and socially.
Ring to discuss any problems you may have, remember this is not an indication of cleanliness of your home or personnel hygiene.
Paul Toplass - 22nd March 2011
We're watching closely to see how the HSE and Local Authorities respond to implementing the Government's Fee For Intervention (FFI) charging regime. This is where they can charge non compliant businesses £124 per hour for their work in enforcing health and safety laws. Initially FFI was due to start on the 6th April but this has been put forward to October 2012.
We're less than half the price of what the HSE could end up charging you! Why not let us help you get better prepared before they turn up? Please ring me if you need any health & safety help or advice on 07976 366510.

Food Hygiene TrainingDo you think the law and with it the goal posts are constantly changing?
Most businesses do not deliberately break the law. Most fall foul due to:
 a lack of knowledge
having other business priorities
just being unaware
Helping you comply with the law is only one part of our business. Our strength is balancing your business priorities with practical solutions for compliance with the law that works. We are not auditors that just tell you ‘what’s wrong’; we also help you put it right.
By working together in this way, we aim to give you time to make your business more successful.
