Staffing Allocation. The CEH Team consists of: Commercial Environmental Health Team Leader 1.0 fte; Environmental Health Officers 3.2 fte; Technical Officer 1.0 fte. The Council’s current staff allocation is considered sufficient to its responsibilities within the service plan. Additional unplanned work may require reprioritisation within the plan in the event of its occurrence. The Commercial Environmental Health Team Leader is the Lead Officer for food hygiene and food safety matters, in accordance with the Food Safety Act Food Law Code of Practice. In addition to the food safety work undertaken by the CEH team, the officers also carry out many other statutory and discretionary duties, including accident investigations, health and safety regulation and enforcement, managing the West Suffolk Safety Advisory Group, active participation in other groups such as the Mid-Anglia Environment Safety and Health Group, skin piercing registration and regulation, smoke free regulation and enforcement. These additional duties, and those within this Food Safety Service Plan are carried out by a professional team of Environmental Health Officers who have the qualifications, knowledge, skills and experience to undertake such a wide variety of activities. The Technical Officer post, created in September 2016, is a developmental one. The current Technical Officer has enrolled on a Post-Graduate course at Birmingham University, starting in September 2017, which will enable them to carry out the full range of food safety interventions and enforcement. This course will take two years to complete, with the officer gaining practical experience and training during this period as they carry out their usual duties.

Staffing Allocation.  See Table 1

Staffing Allocation. The numbers of full time equivalent staff employed on food safety within the Council is as shown in 3.2 above. The Environmental Health Officers are fully qualified and been employed on food safety work for the requisite amount of time to enable them to inspect all categories of premises. Other staff employed within the Service are qualified in accordance with Food Safety Act 1990 Code of Practice. However some have not maintained the level of practical experience required by the Code and therefore are unable to practice in all premises. This issue in relation to update training is addressed in 5.3 below. There is currently a financial allowance made for the employment of contractors to undertake inspections of food premises, although as part of the austerity measures this is currently under review. One of the Environmental Health Officers monitors performance of imported food control which has been contracted to Suffolk Coastal District Council Port Health Authority.

Staffing Allocation. The strategic financial, human and service functions are undertaken through the Environmental Services Management Team led by the Chief Environmental Services Officer. Within the Food and Environmental Safety Service there are currently 28 posts. A detailed analysis of the proportion of the supervisory and operational time dedicated to food safety is contained in the table below.
