Food safety is an increasingly important public health issue. Governments all over the world are intensifying their efforts to improve food safety. These efforts are in response to an increasing number of food safety problems and rising consumer concerns.
What is food safety?
A simple definition of food safety is protecting people from illness or injury from handling or consuming food. But providing food safety can be complex. Efforts must be applied at every step in the process from where foods are produced through where they are consumed. Yet food safety practices, legislation and regulatory oversight vary between and even within nations. These differences can affect the integrity of local, regional and global food supply chains. That’s why we are working to achieve global food systems that are more transparent, harmonized and science-based in order to enhance public health outcomes and strengthen food security.
