How are food outlets judged on hygiene?

Businesses that serve food are judged on three criteria:

-How hygienically the food is handled – how it is prepared, cooked, re-heated, cooled and stored.

-The condition of the structure of the buildings – the cleanliness, layout, lighting, ventilation and other facilities

-How the business manages and records what it does to make sure food is safe.
