Yes, if you are going to work with food commercially (ie selling food products), you must have a food hygiene certificate. Having it assures the public you know how to prepare and store foods properly and safely. You can take it at a local catering college etc, or online - see http://www.food-certificate.co.uk/
FROM THE FOOD STANDARDS AGENCY: Food handlers must receive appropriate supervision, and be instructed and/or trained in food hygiene, to enable them to handle food safely. Those responsible for developing and maintaining the business's food safety procedureson HACCP principles, must have received adequate training. The requirements for training should be seen in the context of the nature and size of the business. There is no legal requirement to attend a formal training course or get a qualification, although many businesses may want their staff to do so. The necessary skills may also be obtained in other ways, such as through on-the-job training, self-study or relevant prior experience. The operator of the food business is responsible for ensuring this happens.

How are fast food restaurants regulated hygiene both in factories and stores?
Food hygiene proficiency is regulated by the food hygiene regulation (852/2004/EU), and the Food Act (23/2006, amendment 1137/2008). Operators in the food business are required to ensure at their own expense that employees handling food are given training and instructions relevant to their work tasks. Employees must have a hygiene passport if they in their work handle unpackaged easily perishable foods. Such foods are, for example, milk, meat and fish. Cafeterias, restaurants, institutional kitchens, various kiosks, fast-food restaurants, food stores, for example, and also many factories manufacturing foods are work places were the employees are required to have a hygiene passport. It is required that one within three months of commencing work must acquire a hygiene passport. These three months retroactively are calculated also to include such prior work in the food business where hygiene passport is required.
Is sleeping and eating considered part of hygiene?
Generally when it come to personal hygiene these don't come into account. Personal hygiene is about keeping yourself clean.

And there needs to be a certain amount of hygiene when it come to food. Work surfaces need to be clean and cooking implements too. Also the meat should not get contaminated and your plates and cutlery should be clean and this is all to keep from getting food poisoning.

That will depend upon the local laws. That probably differs with each country, too.
