This Food Hygiene Audit Checklist helps restaurants, cafes, and commercial kitchens verify compliance with food safety standards. It covers personal hygiene, kitchen and equipment sanitation, food preparation practices, cross-contamination controls, thawing and storage procedures, chiller and freezer temperature management, FEFO stock rotation, dry-goods storage, dishwashing practices, waste handling, pest control evidence, and dining area cleanliness. It also prompts checks for staff training, regulatory registrations, and documentation so teams can maintain consistent, audit-ready operations and reduce contamination risks.
