Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about using a digital SFBB pack.
Can I use digital SFBB records during an EHO inspection?
Yes. Food businesses in the UK must maintain documented food-safety procedures and records based on HACCP principles. Safe Kitchen digitises daily SFBB diary entries, 4-weekly reviews, and temperature logs in line with FSA guidance. Digital records provide clear, time-stamped, and legible documentation designed to make inspections easier to prepare for.
What is Safer Food Better Business?
Safer Food Better Business (SFBB) is an innovative and practical approach to food safety management, developed by the Food Standards Agency (FSA). It helps small businesses comply with food hygiene regulations by outlining Safe Methods for handling food.
How often must I complete SFBB checks?
SFBB checks must be completed every day you are open for business. This includes both opening and closing checks. Additionally, a comprehensive review of your practices is required every 4 weeks to ensure procedures remain effective.
Can I replace my paper SFBB pack?
Absolutely. By moving to a digital SFBB app like Safe Kitchen, you eliminate the need for printing out diary sheets, physically storing heavy binders, and dealing with lost paperwork, all while keeping your food hygiene records structured and clear.
What happens if my SFBB diary has gaps?
Gaps in your SFBB diary suggest a breakdown in food safety management. During an EHO inspection, this can severely impact your food hygiene rating (Scores on the Doors). Our app sends timely reminders to ensure no checks are missed.
