Separate from the Food Hygiene Certificate, the Health Inspection Certificate applies to all commercial premises — not just food-related businesses — that must demonstrate compliance with public health and sanitation standards. It covers factors such as sanitation facilities, ventilation, waste disposal, and general cleanliness of the working environment.
