Missing Links in developing a food safety culture in the food companies
 
Took Place:
Friday, May 05, 2023
 
Presenter:
Wasi Asghar, Assistant Director (Technical), Export Inspection Council
 
Webinar Overview:
Food Safety Culture has been always a requirement to be developed in the Food Companies. Further, this is now a compliance requirement for the companies implementing standards such as BRCGS, FSSC 22000, SQF, Global GAP and IFS. Recently, EU adopted commission regulation (EU) 2021/382 which reads Food business operators shall establish, maintain and provide evidence of an appropriate food safety culture. Wasi Asghar, Assistant Director(Technical), will lead a discussion on the Missing Links in developing a food safety culture in the food companies. He will be further explaining the Key requirements to ensure existence of Food Safety Culture and will also discuss the key tools to measure it.

Marlene Peterson Peterson : …and having routine meetings with all employees around this program that rewards food safety culture. It is a practical and simple way and all employees will engage.
