Component scores are FHRS intervention scores: lower is better. They are not the same scale as the overall 0–5 rating and may be absent after a rescore.

This rating describes hygiene standards found on the inspection date, not food quality. Ratings can change after later local-authority inspections. Verify the current official record before relying on it.

<table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="width:633px;" width="633"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="width:633px;height:126px;"> <p> Sanitization: We have switched to a dual-action disinfectant that meets BS EN 1276 and BS EN 13697 standards. All staff have been briefed on the required contact time for this specific product.<br /> Hot Water Provision: We have verified that the bar sink does provide hot water. However, as it can take time to reach the required temperature, we have implemented a "flush" protocol at the start of every shift. We are also consulting a plumber for a permanent solution<br /> Pest Proofing: All structural gaps identified in the back room have been professionally sealed by a builder. We have also added a "Gaps and Cracks" check to our bi-weekly internal audit.<br /> Storage & Flooring: All stock is now stored off the floor on appropriate shelving. We have a contractor scheduled to lay industrial vinyl flooring this month to ensure the surface is non-absorbent and easy to clean - He is quoting next week.<br /> Training: All staff members have been enrolled in Level 1 Food Hygiene Training, with a mandatory completion deadline of 30th April.<br /> <br /> Documentation: The Safer Food, Better Business (SFBB) pack is now fully completed, and our daily/weekly opening and closing checks are being strictly recorded.</p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>  </p>
