Compliance with Food Safety Standards in Retail Food Operations
Duration: 1 Hour
Compliance with food safety standards is becoming ever more difficult. Mandates by the FDA and the USDA such as HACCP procedures and ISO 22000-based food safety management systems are the basis for many quality and compliance programs in the food and beverage industry. Companies know all too well that improperly trained employees, substandard products, or poor service can cost millions of dollars a year in lost sales and leave the door open to more severe consequences . While the food operator must focus on customer safety, concern must also be directed toward the avoidance of litigation as sophistication in this arena is very high and the negative outcomes are costly.
This webinar will focus on WHY the food safety goal is becoming so challenging and will include the necessary information to evaluate and improve current food service systems. Sources cited will include the 2005 FDA Food Code (USA) and the global Codex Alimentarius.
Areas Covered in the seminar:
- The three types of contamination
- An emphasis on the growth of biological organisms
- Critical errors in documentation
- New regulations involving employee health and the transmission of disease
