Digital food safety diary and daily checks
The paper SFBB diary works until someone is off sick, the folder goes missing, or inspection prep reveals three blank weeks. A digital diary keeps the same routine — opening checks, closing checks, problems and fixes — but makes gaps visible the day they happen, not the month after.
What you get
- Opening and closing checks matched to your actual routine, signed off by a named person
- A month-view board showing every day's status at a glance — done, missed, or needs follow-up
- Problems recorded with corrective actions and close-outs, so the audit trail tells the full story
- The periodic manager review built into the workflow instead of forgotten on a shelf
- Multi-site visibility: one view of which stores are keeping up and which are slipping
Why it matters at inspection
The diary is the main evidence an EHO uses to judge confidence in management — one of the three areas that decide your food hygiene rating. Complete, honest, day-of records are what move that score. Read more in our guides on replacing the paper SFBB pack and preparing for an EHO inspection.
