The FSA scheme gives businesses a rating from zero to five which is displayed at their premises and online to enable the public to make more informed choices about where to buy and eat food.

  • 5 – hygiene standards are very good

  • 4 – hygiene standards are good

  • 3 – hygiene standards are generally satisfactory

  • 2 – some improvement is necessary

  • 1 – major improvement is necessary

  • 0 – urgent improvement is required

According to the Food Standards Agency, ratings are a snapshot of the standards of food hygiene found at the time of inspection.

It is the responsibility of the business to comply with food hygiene law at all times.

This includes:

  • handling of food

  • how food is stored

  • how food is prepared

  • cleanliness of facilities

  • how food safety is managed
