Synopsis

The first book to present an integrated, practical approach to the management of food safety throughout the production chain, Food Safety Management in the Industrial Setting guides the reader through the various risks associated with each sector of the production process, and alerts them to the measures needed to mitigate those risks. Using practical examples of incidents and their root causes, this book creates awareness of pitfalls in food safety management, and provides key insight into means of avoiding them. The book is meant to be a reference for food safety managers in different sectors, from primary producers to processing, transport, retail and distribution, as well as the food services sector. Each section addresses its subject in terms of relevance and application to food safety and, to the appropriate extent, spoilage.
