We can tailor all aspects of food hygiene training and advice to any size business, from a small Café/Restaurant to a large Manufacturing Business.

The Food Standards Agency, which runs the Food Hygiene Rating Scheme (FHRS) in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, keeps track of consumer attitudes to the hygiene ratings of food outlets; they have found there’s no doubt that low ratings put off customers.

That eye-catching black and green sticker displaying the Food Hygiene Rating on the window of a restaurant, take-away, coffee shop, food van, canteen or any other establishment where food is prepared for public consumption can make or break a business.

Everyone in the catering and food manufacturing sector should be aiming for a 5-star rating from the inspectors, who base their score on the way food is handled, stored and prepared, as well as the cleanliness of the facilities and how food safety is managed.

The way to ensure full legal compliance with food standards and score that desirable 5 is to make sure all the staff are aware of what’s required, and how to achieve it.

That’s where AMCAS can help, particularly if your business is based in or around Warminster, Westbury, Melksham, Trowbridge or Frome. We not only provide formal Highfield accredited food safety certificate courses, but also organise in-house Food Hygiene Training tailored to individual businesses. With our extensive experience in the industry we are able to advise you how best to stay compliant with food safety regulations and guide you with putting a plan in place to keep those five stars twinkling.

All sorts of factors need to be considered, including things like the layout of the premises, the lighting, ventilation, staff training and the systems and processes in place for preparing and serving or packaging food.

If your Food Hygiene Rating is in the doldrums, especially if it is anywhere between 0 (“urgent improvement required”) or 3 (“hygiene standards are generally satisfactory”), potential customers will notice and your business may be deemed dirty! Customers don’t have to see the FHRS sticker displayed on your premises to know what your rating is – they can look it up online if they wish on the Food Standards Agency searchable database. So, essentially, there is nowhere to hide if your hygiene is not up to par.

Good Food Hygiene Ratings don’t just safeguard consumers from the consequences of poor practice – like contracting food poisoning. They also protect the reputation of your business, assuring your customers that they can trust the food they buy and eat from you. A top rating provides great marketing material for your business, and minimises the risk of you being hit with a nasty and expensive law suit should something go wrong.

Improving or maintaining a 5-star Food hygiene Rating is something for business owners and their staff all to constantly strive for and be proud of, and it’s easily achieved with a little help from your friends here at AMCAS Training. Fill in the form on this page to learn more.
