This session will help you to identify steps you can take to bring your supply-chain control program into compliance. The session will identify some tips and tools for identifying any gaps or opportunities within your current Food Safety Management System to ensure that you are in conformance with both the regulations and your GFSI program requirements.

They are generally introduced into the food environment through raw materials, pests, air, water, and employees. During this webinar find out ways that we can identify these hazards and stop them in their tracks.
