Food safety inspections
Environmental Services - May 2011
food.safety@kirklees.gov.uk
The council carries out regular checks on all food premises to ensure the public is protected and that
high standards are maintained.
Visits to premises are carried out, as far as possible, without prior notification and are priority
programmed according to the degree of potential risk. This ensures that higher risk premises
are visited more frequently than those in lower risk categories.
During an inspection, officers will want to reassure themselves that potential food safety risks have
been identified by the business, and that there are adequate controls in place to prevent any
problems. They will also look at the training of managers and food handlers to ensure that it
is suitable, and they will check that the condition of the premises and equipment is satisfactory.
Where practices or conditions are not satisfactory, every attempt will be made to resolve the situation
by informal means, but where poor conditions persist, or where there is a risk to public health it may
be necessary to resort to formal action. This could involve either the service of legal notice,
prosecution, or in extreme cases closure of the business.
