Daily checks & records

Build the working day around your Irish food-safety system. FSAI's Safe Catering pack separates delivery, refrigeration, cooking and cooling, hot display, hygiene and staff records. Choose the activities your cafe actually carries out, then keep the observations and decisions together for your environmental health officer.

1. Separate the opening walk-through from process checks. A clean preparation area at opening does not record the temperature of a lunch delivery or a batch cooled later in the day.
2. Use the Safe Catering record areas as a review list: deliveries, refrigeration, cooking/cooling/reheating, hot display and hygiene. Configure only the checks relevant to your menu and service.
3. At closing, review missed checks and corrective actions with the next shift. Keep the observation, affected food and decision together, so an HSE visit can follow what happened rather than just see completed boxes.

• FSAI: Safe Catering pack ↗

Today shows the checks and tasks due for the day — for example temperature logs and opening/closing routines. Tap a check to record it, on web or on the mobile app.

A check that isn't completed in its window is shown as missed so it's visible and can be followed up. Records are kept as an accurate, time-stamped history of what was done.

Use the calendar to see any day at a glance and open that day's record. This makes it easy to review past activity.

You can export records (e.g. as PDF/CSV) to keep your own copies or to have them ready to show during an inspection. Reads and exports of your own records are always available.

ProCafe helps your team keep records and evidence aligned with the FSAI and local authority guidance.
