The biggest change in food legislation in US history was initiated in January 2011 with the signing of the Food Safety Modernization Act. However, due to the structure of the legislation, many of the specific rules and details were not readily known. As we pass the two-year anniversary of this ground-breaking Act, four major rules have been released:
|
These rules will have a significant impact on companies within the US and those exporting products to the US. Modifications and/or updates will need to be made to existing programs or new systems developed to ensure compliance once the Final Rules are published and become effective.
AIB's experts in food defense, HACCP, and foreign supplier have collaborated to bring you practical guidance for updating your programs and understanding the evolving relationship between industry and the FDA. The FDA has many new authorities under the Act and food plant management cannot expect it to be business as usual. This course is designed to help food plant management understand their rights and responsibilities under the new law.
Key questions about records access, whistleblower protection, preventive controls, FDA inspections, accreditation of third-party auditors, and use of foreign ingredients will be addressed. Learn how to comply with regulations and in the best interest of your company and the consumer.
We have known about FSMA for two years, and now is the time to move into the implementation phase.
