How to build a culture of food safety

When food safety culture becomes a core business component, it builds brand integrity, and creates common purpose and pride. Within such an environment, every person – from front office to front line – owns the privilege of being a part of this culture and the responsibility for making it work. But how is that accomplished and why is it important?

Food safety culture: perspectives

Built on a foundation of best practices, standards and regulatory compliance, a culture of food safety ultimately exists when dedication to food safety becomes an undeniable priority. When present, this culture serves as a point of pride for everyone in an organisation.

The most authentic cultures that are committed to food safety do so because it’s simply the right thing to do.
