Course Summary
The food industry is incredibly vast and expanding globally. However, organisations must adhere to extensive laws and regulations because of its reach and necessity within society. These regulations help ensure food safety standards are maintained at the highest level to protect consumers' health.
Food safety management applies to the entirety of the food chain, from the farms to consumers. Managing food safety throughout this process can help protect organisations from encountering major risks that could harm them or the consumers. To meet the high expectations of food safety, the organisation must have a detailed policy relating to food safety that fully complies with international regulations. These policies should be regularly monitored and adjusted according to identified risks and customer feedback.
A vital aspect of food safety management is risk management. Strong risk management involves assessing all risks and hazards surrounding food processes and systems. The data gathered from assessments allows the organisation to understand potential risks thoroughly and enables those involved in risk management to implement effective preventative measures and plan for corrective actions.
Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the importance of managing food safety within an organisation.
- Assess the concepts, principles, and industry standards of food safety management.
- Review national and international laws and regulations relating to food safety and ensure full compliance with them.
