Insert Local Authority Logo Here Welcome toSafer food, betterbusiness (SFBB) for retailers • Presented by--------------------------- October 2006
Why did we organise this workshop? • To provide advice and guidance about: • What does the law require? • Safer food, better business • How it can help you
What does the Law require? • Retail businesses that sell any food must comply with food law. • Since January 2006 all food businesses must implement food safety management procedures based on the principles of HACCP. Food businesses: • must be able to show what they do to sell food that is safe to eat and • have this written down.
What is Safer food better business for retailers? • Safer food, better business (SFBB) is a simple food safety management system to help you comply with the law. • SFBB was developed by the Food Standards Agency working with caterers and retailers to help small food businesses.
What are the benefits of using SFBB? • Using the pack will help you to: • comply with the law • train your staff • protect your business’s reputation • improve your business, eg. By wasting less food
Hazards • Microbiological • Physical • Chemical
Determining hazards and controls involve: • Identifying hazards • Developing control measures • Checking control measures are effective • Taking action when things go wrong.
Who is responsible for food safety within a food business? • The owner/manager • All food handlers working within the business
What does the law require with regard to food safety & training? • The owner/manager must make sure that any staff who handle food are supervised and instructed and/or trained in food hygiene in a way that is appropriate for the work they do. • Those responsible for the development and maintenance of the food safety management system must have received adequate training to do this. • For SFBB, this workshop forms part of this training process.
What can happen if you do not comply with food law? • Out of date food A convenience store received a fine of £5,800 after bacon was found on display 16 days past its ‘use by’ date. • The price of bad hygiene A large supermarket chain was fined over £40,000 after a customer reported signs of rodents, including evidence of gnawed stock on the shelves.
