Safer food, better business
All food outlets must produce food that is safe to eat, and since 1 January 2006 food regulations say that businesses must be able to show what they do to make food safe to eat, and have this written down as a record. This has presented a significant change for many food businesses, with some struggling to satisfy the law without help being offered.
'Safer food better business' is a novel, simple and jargon free documented food safety system developed by the Food Standards Agency
for the catering industry and local authorities to assist
small catering businesses comply with the law.
The Food Standards Agency has designed a simple to use toolkit which comprises a free
information pack and a diary which allow basic records to be kept.
