If you have a food business, it’s a legal requirement to have a food safety management system appropriate to the size or complexity of the business, to make sure the food you produce is safe.
The tools listed below are all free to use and can help you develop your food safety management system:
Food Standards Agency: Safer Food Better Business (SFBB) - designed for small businesses, it provides a template that you can use to ensure the food you produce is safe.
Food Standards Agency: My HACCP web tool - a free Food Standards Agency web tool for small food manufacturing businesses. This guides you through the process of developing a food safety management plan based on the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) principles that are required by EU Food Hygiene rules.
Food Standards Agency: Personal hygiene - includes information on fitness for work.
