Food Protection



Food safety deals with safeguarding the food supply chain from the introduction, growth, or survival of hazardous microbial and chemical agents. To maximize public health gains and environmental benefits, we should produce food safely. Ensuring food safety in the food market is an essential component of public health, as it has a global impact on individuals of all demographics, including age, race, gender, and income level. To safeguard the public's and individuals' health, government agencies must enforce food safety laws. In order to address the issue of foodborne illness, numerous governments have implemented health protection procedures and established regulatory systems to ensure food safety. Food safety regulators around the globe use food safety inspection as a method to protect populations by preventing potential public health hazards. Traditionally, food safety inspection entails evaluating food handling practices and the state of food production environments. Food safety inspection entails the direct examination of a food sample to determine its composition, degree of contamination, or quality. Establishing regulations and protocols based on reliable scientific evidence is essential to ensuring fair and just enforcement of food safety laws. We use these regulations and protocols to inform, enforce, and eliminate any food products that pose a risk to the environmental health and safety of the public.
