La tua ispezione

EFET, the Hellenic Food Authority (Ενιαίος Φορέας Ελέγχου Τροφίμων), works under the Ministry of Rural Development and Food. It checks raw materials, food preparation, premises, equipment, staff hygiene and the HACCP-based system. The regional public health services (υγειονομικές υπηρεσίες) also inspect restaurants under the Ministry of Health ordinance. The municipality (Δήμος) takes the notification to open a food business.

Inspections are risk-based: high-risk businesses come first. They can be unannounced or follow a complaint. The inspector suggests improvements and sets a date for a re-check. A risk to health or repeated non-compliance brings sanctions. The municipality closes a business on the health service’s proposal, and EFET’s Board ratifies EFET fines.

Valutazione igienica

Greece has no public hygiene rating, score or sticker, and nothing has to be shown at the door. EFET publishes yearly statistics of its controls, not results for single restaurants.

“Legge” è una norma vincolante. “Linee guida ufficiali” non sono legge, ma gli ispettori se le aspettano. “Chef Hygiene predefinito” è un valore che l’app controlla quando nessuna norma fornisce un numero.
