Each offence carried six demerit points.
Those who accumulate 12 demerit points over 12 months may have their licence suspended for either two or four weeks, or even cancelled entirely.
SFA added that food handlers working in the suspended premises are required to re-attend and pass the Food Safety Course Level 1 before they can continue work as food handlers.
Additionally, the licensee has to ensure that all food hygiene officers, if any, re-attend and pass the Food Safety Course Level 3.
“SFA takes a serious view of these offences and would like to remind food operators to observe good food and personal hygiene practices at all times, and to engage only registered food handlers,” it said.
The agency also stressed that it will not hesitate to take firm action against anyone found to be in violation of the Environmental Public Health Act.
It encourages members of the public not to patronise stalls with poor hygiene practices, and to provide feed through the online feedback feed at https://www.sfa.gov.sg/feedback.
