    What factor features in nearly all food safety incidents and recalls? People and the way they behave in relation to the food they grow, process, and serve to customers.

    All organizations must now demonstrate their commitment to building and sustaining a mature culture of food safety, to comply with FSMS audits and regulatory requirements. Food safety is now the responsibility of everyone working within a food organization.

    PAS 320 has been developed as a freely available guide for the industry on how to measure and develop the organization's food safety culture, and this course will enable the organization’s food safety culture ‘guiding coalition team’ to work towards implementing these guidelines.

    You will learn the meaning and breadth of food safety culture and be able to correlate it with elements of their food safety management system (FSMS) and wider organizational culture.
