Mock inspection
A realistic pre-inspection audit against what the FSA and local officers actually assess.
Understand the FSA, the Food Hygiene Rating Scheme and your legal duties — and let RTNTS help you prepare for inspection and reach a 5.
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) is the UK government body responsible for food safety and standards. Together with local authorities it runs the Food Hygiene Rating Scheme (FHRS), which gives your business a rating from 0 to 5 based on a food safety officer's inspection.
The rating reflects how well you meet food hygiene law — covering hygienic food handling, the condition of your premises, and how you manage and record food safety. Displaying your rating is mandatory in Wales and Northern Ireland and encouraged in England. Whatever your rating today, following food hygiene law at all times is your legal responsibility — and that's where RTNTS helps.
