Malta: brunavarnir

„Lög“ eru bindandi regla. „Opinberar leiðbeiningar“ eru ekki lög, en eftirlitsmenn búast við þeim. „Chef Hygiene sjálfgefið gildi“ er gildi sem appið ber saman við þar sem engin regla gefur upp tölu.

• LögfræðiFire 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).
• LögfræðiFire 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.
• LögfræðiMTA 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.
• LögfræðiThe 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).
• LögfræðiMalta 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.
