What's inside — and why an EHO cares

Every UK food business must run a food safety management system based on HACCP principles and keep records that prove it. Those records influence confidence in management, one of the three areas covered in our guide to food hygiene ratings explained.

The records inspectors ask for first

Opening and closing checks. Fridge and freezer temperatures, with safe ranges printed on the page. Hot-holding and cooking temperatures. Delivery acceptance. A weekly cleaning schedule, and a corrective-action log for anything out of range. The template covers all of them — each page is a day, fill it in at the pass, file it by week.

Built to match SFBB

The structure mirrors the FSA's Safer Food, Better Business pack, so it slots straight into an existing SFBB folder — no re-training, no explaining a new system to the EHO.

Frequently asked questions

Is this template really free?

Yes — there is no charge, account or watermark. Enter your email to download the PDF, then print it and use it for as long as paper works for you.

Is a paper HACCP plan enough for an EHO inspection?

Legally, yes — inspectors accept paper records as long as checks are completed and recorded at the time, by a named person. In practice the folder fails when pages are missing, backfilled or coffee-stained; digital HACCP checklists and EHO-ready reports make those gaps visible before an inspection.
