hi 

 

not expert in hotel but used to know about food manufacturing 

As far as I know, the basic thing about food safety and hygiene system is GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) or in another level you can implement HACCP

 

You can read about GMP in ISO/TS 22002-2:2013 because the scopes including hotel

you can know what to do for safety and hygiene very detail there.

 

Hope can help you

 

thanks

If you're completely new to quality systems and food safety and are looking for something as a (very) basic starting point then you could try the UK's Safer Food, Better Business guidance: https://www.food.gov...better-business

 

This is designed as an easy entry point to basic food safety management for various types of business including caterers, restaurants and care homes, so there is probably something you could use as a rudimentary starting point.
If you're looking for something more substantial then it might be worth looking at bringing a consultant in to help?

Now they have to change your work style, now they have to use ythewait pos app from which they can order contactless and maintain safety. This is the new normal technique.

I was about to suggest the same thing.  The FSA have some simple to understand interpretations of UK food law as well.  Is there a similar organization in Egypt?

Great HACCP building tool that can be used for hotel/restaurant industry - www.haccpbuilder.com

 

I have no affiliation with them  - this is one that I have seen used in hotels in the US.


All the Best,

The starting point would be to establish the scope and range of what you have been asked to do. You state 'Food Safety and Hygiene System' but in a hotel environment these may mean similar or separate things.

 

Food safety would be about the provision of food in whatever format your hotel uses - restaurant, room service bars etc.

 

Hygiene may encompass other hotel activities, including bedroom and washroom cleaning. In these Covid times, this has taken on a magnitude previously unrecognized.
