Chef Hygiene

Mexico: fire safety

Fire safety checks for your kitchen, and how often they are due.

Checked

“Law” is a binding rule. “Official guidance” is not law, but inspectors expect it. “Chef Hygiene default” is a value the app checks against where no rule gives a number.

  • LawNOM-002-STPS-2010 (every workplace): an emergency plan, an evacuation map at the entrances, escape routes and exits kept clear, fire extinguishers checked every month with a record, a yearly programme of checks of the fire equipment and the electrical and gas installations, and fire training every year.
  • LawFire drills at least once a year where the fire risk is ordinary, and at least twice a year where it is high (NOM-002-STPS-2010 sets the risk classes).
  • Chef Hygiene defaultYour state's and city's civil protection (Protección Civil) may ask for more: we did not check their rules, so Chef Hygiene suggests dates you can change.
  • Official guidanceEmergency: 911 for police, fire and ambulance.

Mexico: the Chef Hygiene app

The app loads these rules for your kitchen, checks your records against them and keeps proof for the inspector.
