Do all premises with salad bars for self-service need a sneeze guard? Are sneeze guards compulsory or are there other ways food can be protected?
Food businesses are required to provide protective barriers that minimise the likelihood of contamination of self serve food by customers. Sneeze guards are required unless the food is kept in tamper resistant equipment or containers (e.g. containers with lids). Sneeze guards do not necessarily need to be purchased, simple structures can be made of Perspex or glass.
