A clean and safe working environment is vital for every hygiene-focused business. It not only protects employee health but also fosters customer trust and strengthens your organisation’s reputation. That’s why EWS Group offers high-quality hygiene inspections to help you comply with all relevant food safety and hygiene regulations.
Our independent specialists carry out inspections based on the latest hygiene codes and HACCP guidelines, identify risks, and provide practical improvement recommendations. This gives you a clear picture of your current situation and helps you prevent issues during audits or regulatory checks.
We support a wide range of sectors, including food production, healthcare facilities, retail and hospitality. Whether you manage a single site or multiple locations, an EWS Group hygiene inspection ensures you know exactly where you stand.
What is a Hygiene Inspection?
A hygiene inspection is a professional assessment of how well your organisation meets the hygiene standards applicable in your industry. During the inspection, we assess factors such as cleanliness, food safety, temperature control, personal hygiene, storage and waste management.
The aim is to identify weak spots, highlight risks and ensure food safety — essential for any business that prioritises quality and safety.
Why are Hygiene Inspections Important?
A thorough hygiene inspection helps you to:
- Comply with legislation and regulations (e.g., HACCP and hygiene codes)
- Avoid fines and reputational damage
- Reduce disease transmission and health risks
- Build trust among customers, employees and inspectors
- Maintain consistent quality across your organisation
Without regular inspections, organisations may unknowingly expose themselves to risks, such as mould growth, cross-contamination, improper storage or poorly maintained facilities.
Hygiene Code as the Basis for Inspection
Our experienced inspectors conduct a detailed assessment of all key hygiene aspects in your organisation. We examine food safety, cleanliness, pest entry points and adherence to cleaning protocols.
Using digital checklists, measuring equipment and clear reporting, we provide an objective overview of the current situation. Any deviations are prioritised by severity and include actionable recommendations so you can implement improvements immediately.
Step-by-Step Approach
Our inspections are based on HACCP guidelines and the applicable hygiene code. We provide clear insight into the current situation, assist in implementing improvements and ensure that your organisation continues to meet hygiene and food safety standards.
Baseline Measurement
We start every process with a comprehensive baseline assessment. This initial hygiene inspection provides insight into the current situation and clearly identifies potential risks. You receive a clear report with priorities and recommendations.
1
Follow-up Inspection
After improvements are implemented, we perform a follow-up inspection to check whether the changes are effective and properly maintained.
2
Unannounced Inspection
Would you like an objective view of day-to-day operations? An unannounced hygiene inspection provides a realistic picture of workplace behaviour — not just during formal audits.
