Last month IFSQN conducted a webinar on the influence of COVID-19 on the food industry where we proposed 4 preventive steps and 1 recovery step that can be implemented by industry during the coronavirus pandemic.

 

The webinar recording can be found here:
https://www.ifsqn.co...d-industry-r213

 

An accompanying article can be found here:
https://www.ifsqn.co...od-industry-r75

 

Since the webinar, the global pandemic has developed rapidly posing new questions and challenges for the food industry. Additionally, IFSQN has communicated with numerous producers and we have identified new actions that can be implemented including actions connected with the continuity of food safety systems.

 

This webinar provides a brief update about the influence of COVID-19 on the food industry and an opportunity to submit your questions to our industry expert.

Hi Simon,

 

Thank you for the videos. It is very helpful but I can't download slides. It says To download files you need to make at least 25 constructive posts on the forums. 

I was wondering if there is anyway I can download it. Thank you!

 

Grace
