Typical hazards & measures
- Staff fatigue and repetitive strain — Rotate staff between cutting, serving, and cleaning tasks, enforce scheduled breaks, and monitor overtime. Provide ergonomic mats in prep zones and ensure hydration during shifts.
- Customer parking and vehicle hazards — Mark parking bays clearly, provide lighting and CCTV in customer areas, and separate delivery and customer zones where possible. Grit icy surfaces, inspect weekly for hazards, and provide signage for safe entry/exit flows.
- Allergen management (shellfish/fish) — Label allergens clearly on signage, maintain allergen charts, and train staff in scripted responses. Use dedicated utensils for allergen-free requests, sanitise prep areas, and log all allergen incidents.
- Fire hazards from electrical equipment — Fit extinguishers near prep areas, service circuits quarterly, and keep exits clear. Train staff in evacuation, rehearse drills biannually, and prohibit ignition sources near wet areas.
- Waste and odour management — Store offcuts and spoiled seafood in sealed bins, remove daily via licensed contractors, and disinfect storage zones regularly. Maintain ventilation to reduce odours and log all waste collections.
