Our purpose is simple: to make the world a safer place to eat, work and play. With the UK’s largest team of Environmental Health Practitioners, we bring deep real-world expertise directly into high-pressure hospitality environments. We work alongside operators to simplify processes, strengthen standards and embed the habits that keep teams and guests safe every day.

At the centre of our proposition is Shield Assure — our expert-designed operational safety solution created specifically for multi-site hospitality, including pubs, bars, restaurants, hotels and wider leisure operators. Shield Assure provides structure, clarity and dependable workflows that make strong safety practical and achievable at scale.

Shield Assure brings together three powerful elements:

Expert-led guidance Our EHPs and specialists support teams with clear, real-world advice that turns complex obligations into simple, actionable steps.

RiskProof intelligence Integrated within Shield Assure, RiskProof gives operators real-time visibility, predictive insight and structured workflows that help teams act early, stay consistent and improve with certainty.

Independent consumer assurance Safe to Trade delivers accredited, Primary Authority Inspection Plan-recognised confidence to guests, stakeholders and regulators. It strengthens trust and gives operators a credible, visible way to demonstrate their commitment to safety.

Today, Shield Safety partners with some of the most established and respected pub groups and hospitality brands in the UK and globally — businesses that demand reliability, rigour and real partnership. Operators choose us because we provide more than guidance: we deliver operational clarity, remove pressure from General Managers, enhance guest experience and bring estate-wide consistency to even the most complex portfolios.

For ambitious multi-location operators, we believe safety is more than a requirement — it’s a strategic advantage that protects people, strengthens reputation and drives performance.
