Do convenience stores need health certificates?

Legal analysis: need. People engaged in the production and operation of food and drinking water, cosmetics producers and people who directly serve customers in public places all need to apply for health certificates. In supermarket work, tallymen, porters and office workers do not need to provide health certificates, but they also need to provide entry physical examination forms.

Legal basis: Regulations on Hygiene Management in Public Places.

Seventh people who directly serve customers in public places must hold a "health certificate" before they can engage in their own work. Persons suffering from dysentery, typhoid fever, viral hepatitis, active tuberculosis, purulent or exudative skin diseases and other diseases that hinder public health shall not engage in direct customer service before they are cured.

Article 14 The health and epidemic prevention institutions may, according to the seriousness of the case, give administrative penalties such as warning, fine, suspension of business for rectification, revocation of the Hygiene Permit, etc. to units and individuals that have committed one of the following acts: (1) Those whose hygiene quality does not meet the national hygiene standards and requirements, but continue to operate; (2) directly serving customers without obtaining a Health Certificate; (3) refusing health supervision; (four) without obtaining the "health permit", operating without authorization. All fines will be turned over to the state treasury.
