A Best Practice Guide to Product Safety Culture

A poor culture will prevent objectives being achieved and waste the time, effort and resources put into achieving them. Worse, it will create the conditions where product safety breakdown may occur, causing potentially devastating consequences for customers and consumers as well as for the business itself.

The necessity for a positive product safety culture has been recognised by globally significant standards setting authorities such as Codex Alimentarius, GFSI, BRCGS and ISO, as well as national governments, and it is becoming a key part of product safety audits.

This publication is for business managers, auditors, and anyone with an interest in product safety culture in the food, consumer product and transportation industries. It will be particularly helpful for businesses who want to better understand and improve their product safety culture, and to demonstrate their commitment to customers and auditors.
