๐Ÿ“ข Food Hygiene Regulations 2009 Amendments: Key Update for Food Handlers

Starting 1 December 2026, amendments to Regulation 31 and Regulation 31(1) under the Food Hygiene Regulations 2009 will come into effect.

Under this amendment, the words โ€œmedical examinationโ€ and โ€œmedically examinedโ€ have been removed from the regulations.

What does this mean?

โœ… Food handlers will no longer be required to undergo a medical check-up as a mandatory requirement to become a food handler.

๐Ÿ“Œ The following requirements remain in force:
โœ”๏ธ Completion of Food Handler Training from an approved training provider
โœ”๏ธ Typhoid vaccination for food handlers, where required under the regulations

While the mandatory medical examination requirement has been removed, food businesses and food handlers must continue to uphold high standards of food safety, personal hygiene, and safe food handling practices to protect consumers and ensure regulatory compliance.

FSSC 22000 VERSION 7 is available now!!

FSSC 22000 V.7 marks a significant step forward in strengthening food safety systems. With improved alignment to GFSI requirements, updated PRP standards, and a stronger focus on sustainability, V.7 provides clearer guidance and a more structured framework for organizations.

Transition Timeline

* A 12-month transition period, similar to the upgrade from V.6
* Audits under V.6 are allowed until 30 April 2027
* Upgrade audits to V.7 will take place between 1 May 2027 and 30 April 2028

The transition to FSSC 22000 Version 7 is not just about compliance, but an opportunity to strengthen overall food safety systems and operations. Organizations are encouraged to start early by conducting a gap analysis, understanding the new requirements, especially on PRPs, GFSI alignment, and sustainability, and planning implementation in a structured manner.

Make full use of the transition period by training your team, updating documentation, and raising internal awareness. A proactive approach will not only ensure a smoother upgrade process but also enhance customer confidence and long-term business competitiveness.

Stagnant water in a food processing facility is a major red flag for safety and hygiene. Even a small puddle, like the one shown under the sink, can lead to serious food safety risks.

Key Risks of Stagnant Water:

Microbial Breeding Ground: Standing water provides the perfect environment for dangerous bacteria like Listeria and Salmonella to multiply and spread to food contact surfaces.

Pest Attraction: Moisture attracts pests like ants, cockroaches and flies, which carry pathogens that can contaminate production lines.

Biofilm Formation: Persistent wet spots allow for the development of biofilms, which are resistant to standard cleaning and can harbor chronic contamination.

Cross-Contamination: Water can easily be tracked by workers' boots or equipment throughout the facility, spreading microbes into clean zones.

Safety Measures:

Immediate Reporting: Any leaks or standing water must be reported to maintenance or sanitation teams immediately.

Regular Inspections: Daily checks of plumbing, drains, and equipment are essential to prevent water accumulation.

Proper Drainage: Ensure floors are correctly sloped toward functional drains to prevent pooling.

Remember: A dry floor is a safe floor.

Small design details matter in GMP compliance.

In food handling and manufacturing environments, even something as simple as a handle design can impact hygiene and safety.

โœ… Closed-ended handle
โ€“ No gaps or openings for contaminants
โ€“ Easy to clean and sanitize
โ€“ Supports GMP compliance

โŒ Open-ended handle
โ€“ Can harbor bacteria and dirt
โ€“ Difficult to clean thoroughly
โ€“ Risk of non-compliance

MS1514:2022 GMP clause related:
Clause 4.3 Equipment
4.3.1 Design and Construction
4.3.1. 1ย ย Equipment and containers coming into contact with food should be suitable for food contact, designed and constructed and located to ensure that they can be adequately cleaned (other than containers which are single-use only) and disinfected (where necessary) and maintained to avoid the contamination of food, according to hygienic design principles.

GMP is not just about cleaning. Itโ€™s also about design that prevents contamination in the first place.
