Cleaning Schedule & Records
A clean kitchen is not enough. You need to prove it was cleaned, when, by whom, and with what.
The EHO checks three things: your cleaning schedule (what gets cleaned, when, how), your cleaning records (proof it was actually done), and your chemical records (COSHH). Most food businesses have the first one. Almost none have all three.
WHAT YOU GET (10 pages):
✓ Master cleaning schedule with 3 sections: daily tasks (9 pre-written tasks), weekly tasks (7 tasks), and monthly deep-clean tasks (6 tasks) — each with frequency, method, chemical, and who columns
✓ Daily cleaning record — weekly grid (10 tasks × 7 days) with staff initials and manager sign-off
✓ Weekly cleaning record — monthly grid (7 tasks × 5 weeks)
✓ Cleaning chemical COSHH records — 6 common chemicals pre-populated (sanitiser, washing-up liquid, oven cleaner, degreaser, bleach, floor cleaner) with hazards, PPE, storage, and safety data sheet status
✓ Cleaning verification checklist — 17-point monthly audit
Pre-populated with real kitchen tasks — not blank templates you have to write yourself. Customise the tasks for your specific operation.

WHY BUY FROM US INSTEAD OF A FOOD SAFETY CONSULTANT?
✗ a food safety consultant charges £800–1,200 for a HACCP plan and documentation
✗ a monthly food safety software subscription costs £24–250/month (£288–3,000/year)
✗ the free FSA templates are generic, not editable, and not customisable to your business
✓ Our products cost £19–49 each — a fraction of consultant fees
✓ One-off purchase, no subscription, no monthly fees, no renewal charges
✓ Editable Word (.docx) — customise with your business details in minutes
✓ Comprehensive multi-page packs with guidance, not single-page blank templates

✓ Professional format — the same standard a consultant would produce
✓ Instant download — ready to use today, not in 3 weeks when the consultant gets round to it
✓ Buy once, use forever — no per-use licence, no expiry date
WHY YOU NEED FOOD SAFETY DOCUMENTS:
✓ Every food business in the UK must have a food safety management system based on HACCP principles — legally required under EC Regulation 852/2004 (retained in UK law)
✓ Your Food Hygiene Rating (0–5) is published online and directly affects customer confidence
✓ The Management category of your FHRS score is where most businesses score lowest — because they handle food well but don’t document anything
✓ These documents are specifically designed to give you a strong Management score
✓ Without documentation, the EHO marks you down even if your kitchen is spotless
