With our food safety culture courses, those in the food manufacturing sector can meet regulatory compliance requirements with greater ease.
As you’ll be aware, understanding food safety regulations is vital for ensuring food safety and public health. As an award-winning global supplier of compliance training, Percipio Training is committed to helping you create a safe and productive workplace.
Along with helping you meet compliance, food safety culture courses can also offer a range of other benefits.
Improve the knowledge of your food manufacturing team.
When your staff are properly educated in food safety culture, it’s much easier to identify and reduce risks associated with foodborne illnesses, contamination, and other potential hazards.
This can in turn increase the trust of your consumers, who can trust you for safe, high quality food.
Educating staff about food safety protocols, practices, and the importance of their roles in maintaining a safe food environment is crucial. A food safety culture course can help in raising awareness of a wide range of issues and ensuring consistent practices.
Percipio Training can help you continuously improve. We believe a culture of food safety encourages staff to be more vigilant when it comes to carrying out all procedures. It promotes a proactive approach to food safety rather than a reactive one.
Keep the trust of your customers.
A strong food safety culture in an organisation ensures that quality and safety are prioritised, fostering trust and confidence among consumers. A strong business reputation is vital for your brand’s image and encourages customer loyalty.
Investing in training and culture can save money in the long run.
In the long-term it can also save you money. When you have proper food safety measures in place, it reduces the risk of recalls, legal action and other costly consequences that may arise from contamination or foodborne illnesses. Legal action can be extremely expensive and have a lasting negative impact on your business.
Many food businesses operate globally. Understanding and implementing best practices in food safety are essential for international trade and meeting the various standards and requirements in different regions.
A food safety culture course also helps to instil a deeper understanding of the importance of food safety measures. It enables individuals and organisations to take the key steps to prevent contamination, uphold quality standards, and protect the health of the public.
Our popular courses include Food Safety Culture: Leading and Managing a Positive Food Safety Culture.
This course has been tailored to reflect the mandatory requirement in many certification schemes codes of practice and recent changes in the Codex Alimentarius General Principles of Food Hygiene and EU Food Safety Legislation.
Since it’s a comprehensive one day course, it’s easy to fit around your other commitments. Key topics covered in this course include food safety management system (FSMS) versus food safety culture. Although they share the common goal of protecting consumers, each approaches this objective in different ways.
While FSMS provides the structured framework and processes to manage food safety hazards, food safety culture focuses on the people and their behaviours. It emphasises a collective commitment to continuous improvement in food safety practices. Both are essential components of a comprehensive approach to ensuring the safety of food products.
Participants will also cover food safety culture concepts; characteristics of positive, complacent and poor safety cultures; food safety culture development cycle; the GFSI food safety culture maturity model, and much more.
This is just one of the many different courses we have available at Percipio Training. We’re a leading partner for accredited courses in Food Hygiene and Safety, HACCP, Auditing, Food Allergy Awareness and Management, Licensing, Training Skills, Health and Safety and Environmental Sustainability.
