Programs and Services

Environmental Health: Safe Food

Public Health Inspectors conduct inspections of public eating establishments on routine and complaint basis. The Food Safety Regulations, Public Eating Establishment Standards and The Bakeshop Regulations are used to ensure the public is safe.

Public health inspectors inspect restaurants, temporary food events, bakeries and delis.

Public health inspectors also offer safe food handlers courses and provide food safety information.

Restaurant Inspection Information

There are approximately 5,000 restaurant type facilities in Saskatchewan. In the Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region these facilities are subject to inspection by the Environmental Health Department public health officers who inspect to determine compliance with The Food Safety Regulations and standards. This online service provides the public with a public health inspection summary concerning the results of each inspection.

Online access to information for facilities licensed by health regions is available free of charge at www.health.gov.sk.ca/restaurant-inspections.

Opening a New or Existing Restaurant

Opening a restaurant should be a positive experience, however, delays and unforeseen construction/renovation costs can be expensive and frustrating. To aid you through this process we've created a "Guide to Opening a Public Eating Establishment" opening a restaurant in Regina or opening a restaurant in the Rural Area.

Please remember anyone wishing to prepare and sell food to the public must apply for a public eating establishment licence before opening. If you are opening a new eating establishment or changing ownership of a business, please complete the New Premises Application Form along with your restaurant menu and a detailed floor plan. Please mail or fax to 766-7730, for more information please contact your district public health inspector.

Temporary Food and Drink Concession Applications

To assist in the safe operation of temporary food service events, the Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region has developed the Food Safety at Temporary Events document. Any group wishing to hold a temporary food service event must follow safe food handling practices and be licenced. The Food Safety at Temporary Events document outlines the requirements for the safe and sanitary operation of a temporary food event. For more detailed information regarding temporary food event operation please consult the Guidelines for the Operation of Temporary Food and Drink Concessions. The Guidelines are for all (large or small) temporary food events operating 6 or fewer days per calendar year.

Approval from a Public Health Inspector must be received before the operator opens the concession.
