  • Crisis management in the food industry: prevention, mitigation, and investigation 10 January 2025 - 07:34 PM   ifsqn webinars and 7 more...
    No matter how well our management systems are established and implemented, occasional incidents are to be expected – and when they do, it is our responsibility to explore the roots of nonconformity, and uproot them to prevent reoccurrence. Too often, such incident investigations fail to identify true root causes and we end up with superficial remedies such as “retrain” and “refresh procedures”. Getting to the bottom of adverse incidents requires a deep understanding of risk management, human factors and problem solving methods. In this webinar recording we will be exposed to a proven method for identifying root causes and important insights crucial to an effective outcome.
