What is Food Safety Culture? Understanding the Foundation?
Food safety culture is what a facility thinks about and does around food safety when no one is looking. It’s the unwritten rules that inform decisions whether to adhere strictly to a procedure, or cut a corner here and there. With a strong culture, employees at all levels believe they own food safety. They raise alarms about risks, adhere to protocols rigidly and take pride in defending consumers. It’s this cultural underpinning that transforms good systems into great outcomes. At FV PRO Learn, we teach the human factors of food safety because as we say, change is not made on paper, but with people.
