Food safety design allows schools to control food safety hazards related to food preparation, handling, delivery and across critical aspects of sanitation and personal hygiene. A full-fledged, inclusive plan is necessary to ensure compliance at state and local levels, and adherence to established food safety standards. It is also the “right” thing to do for your customer.
However, the challenge for most schools is harmonizing all food safety efforts into a cohesive whole.
While an understanding of codes, standards and requirements may exist, design and implementation can be overwhelming. Food Safety Solutions turn fragmented efforts into a cohesive, standardized and results-oriented plan.
