Hospitality & Tourism Industry
Hospitality in Malta operates under a dual layer of regulation: the Health and Safety at Work Act (Cap. 646).
Key Local Context for 2026:
High-Risk Zones: Kitchens and plant rooms are prime targets for inspections. Common “wrongdoings” include lack of machinery guarding or poor chemical storage. Websedia ensures everything is compliant before an inspection arrives.
