Statutory & Best Practice Compliance
Independent audits and expert guidance to keep your catering and cleaning services compliant, sustainable and future-ready — with support from Litmus Partnership

Keeping up with compliance
Keeping up with compliance in catering and cleaning can be complex, time-consuming and often overwhelming. Legislation in these areas changes frequently, and organisations face increasing pressure to demonstrate that services are safe, legal and well-managed.
We have been doing this for decades. Discover more about out story…
We alleviate the pressure
Our Statutory and Best Practice Compliance service provides expert advice, independent audits and practical guidance that give you complete confidence your organisation remains compliant today — and ready for whatever comes next.
We make compliance clear, manageable and sustainable, turning a regulatory requirement into a platform for safer, more effective service delivery.
Taking the complexities out of legislation
Catering and cleaning legislation can feel like a maze — from food safety and hygiene regulations to employment law, allergen management, COSHH and environmental standards.
Our experienced consultants simplify the process, helping you interpret and apply the rules that matter most to your operation. We assess your current position, identify areas of risk, and provide clear recommendations to help you achieve full compliance.
With Litmus, you gain peace of mind that every service is delivered safely, legally and in line with best practice.

What's involved
Our compliance support is tailored to the specific needs of your organisation, combining technical expertise with practical insight.
We help you:
- Understand legislation – Clarify statutory and best practice requirements across catering, cleaning and facilities management.
- Conduct independent audits – Assess compliance levels and identify areas for improvement.
- Develop action plans – Create clear steps to close gaps and maintain compliance over time.
- Implement systems – Embed tools and processes that make compliance simple, visible and auditable.
- Monitor and review – Keep compliance activities current and aligned with changing regulations.
We don’t just check compliance — we help you build it into the fabric of your operations.
The role of technology
Technology now plays an essential role in managing compliance effectively. With numerous software platforms available, knowing which system best fits your needs can be daunting.
We work with you to identify, implement and optimise the most effective solutions — helping to:
- Streamline compliance processes
- Improve visibility across multiple sites or departments
- Automate reporting and record-keeping
- Reduce administrative burden
The result is a compliance process that’s not only robust but also efficient and future-ready.
Experience that makes the difference
Because we work UK-wide and across multiple sectors — including education, healthcare, business and the public sector — we know what works well in practice and what doesn’t.
That insight allows us to guide you towards approaches that deliver genuine results, helping you avoid the costly missteps that can occur when compliance is treated as a tick-box exercise.
Our focus is always on practical, achievable outcomes — reducing risk, improving processes and building confidence for your stakeholders.
