মাল্টা: অগ্নি নিরাপত্তা

“আইন” হলো একটি বাধ্যতামূলক নিয়ম। “সরকারি নির্দেশিকা” আইন নয়, কিন্তু পরিদর্শকরা এটি প্রত্যাশা করেন। “Chef Hygiene ডিফল্ট” হলো এমন একটি মান যা অ্যাপটি যাচাই করে, যেখানে কোনো নিয়মে সংখ্যা দেওয়া থাকে না।

• আইনFire drills must be held at least every 6 months and recorded. A fire safety expert recognised by the Civil Protection Department (CPD) may set a longer interval in writing, never over 12 months (S.L. 646.08, reg. 9).
• আইনFire equipment must be under a suitable system of maintenance to the CPD’s satisfaction, with records (S.L. 646.08). The law gives no interval. Chef Hygiene suggests a yearly service.
• আইনMTA standards for restaurants: service date shown on each extinguisher, a maintenance certificate from a professional, an automatic fire alarm, emergency lighting, and an evacuation exercise at least yearly. The extraction hood must be properly maintained, with no interval set.
• আইনThe electrical installation and its earthing must be inspected and tested periodically by a licensed electrician, at the interval the electrician recommends (S.L. 545.24, reg. 16).
• আইনMalta has no natural gas network, only LPG cylinders. An LPG store over 150 kg or with 6 or more linked cylinders needs authorisation from the regulator REWS, valid for 10 years (S.L. 545.20). Chef Hygiene suggests a yearly check by an approved LPG installer.
