Compliance, Safety & Professional Standards

Fully DBS Vetted & Referenced Chefs

Sample Enhanced Certificate showing no recorded police or barred list information.

Before any chef joins our relief team, they go through a strict vetting process. 

This includes:


  • Proof of right to work in the UK
  • At least two verified professional references
  • Identity checks and up-to-date CVs
  • Minimum 5 years of kitchen experience in a commercial setting.

 

We never send out inexperienced or unknown chefs – every placement is a safe pair of hands.

Fully Insured for Temporary Work

Every Five Star Chefs placement is backed by full insurance cover, including:


  • Public liability
  • Professional indemnity
  • Employers’ liability


You can be confident that you're protected, whether the chef is with you for one shift or several weeks.

Food Hygiene & Health & Safety Standards

Food Hygiene & Health & Safety Standards

Cover page of the Food Standards Act 1999 establishing food safety regulations in the UK.

All our chefs carry up-to-date Level 2 or higher Food Hygiene certification and follow strict hygiene protocols. 

They are trained in:


  • HACCP procedures and allergen awareness.
  • Safe food handling, temperature control, and cross-contamination prevention.
  • Clean-down and kitchen hygiene routines.
  • Manual handling and safe working practices.


When they step into your kitchen, they already understand how to uphold your hygiene standards – not learn them.
