Get Inspections When You Buy a Hotel

When you buy a hotel, you’ll eventually be subject to various inspections. It helps to be prepared and aware of the various inspections that a hotel may need to pass. By staying informed you can always be ready when the inspector comes knocking. Don’t buy a hotel without understanding the various responsibilities it entails.

OSHA

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or OSHA, conducts inspections to ensure you are complying with safety regulations to protect your staff. A typical OSHA inspection might include testing your staff on their safety procedure knowledge and making sure safety procedures are in place. They’ll also inspect the premises to make sure there are no hazardous work conditions. OSHA is a fairly standard inspection, and you shouldn’t have anything to worry about if you comply with typical safety regulations. After all, it is for the safety of you and your staff.

Health Inspection

If you serve food or have a restaurant in your hotel, it will be subject to health inspections. Your local health inspector comes to make sure you are cooking and serving food in a sanitary environment that follows health codes. Keeping a clean work environment is essential to passing a health inspection. You can contact your local health inspector to make sure you’re in compliance. Health inspections can be random, so make sure you’re following safety regulations closely.

Quality Assurance

If you want your hotel to maintain a high star rating, you may be subject to quality assurance inspections. These inspections determine whether your hotel rating is appropriate. For instance, if you have a five-star hotel with bad service, a quality assurance inspector may downgrade you to a four-star hotel. Maintaining a high-quality work ethic in your business helps you to please quality assurance inspectors. Quality assurance inspectors usually don’t tell you they’re coming, so make sure to treat all your guests with the quality service they deserve.
