QA Virtual Conference on Food Safety Culture Set for Dec. 13

The free virtual event will feature speakers such as Frank Yiannas from FDA, Dr. Amy Parks from Dole Fresh Vegetables and Jill Stuber and Tia Glave from Catalyst.


VALLEY VIEW, Ohio — Quality Assurance & Food Safety magazine's "QA Food Safety Culture Virtual Conference" Dec. 13 will cover food safety culture in fun and informative ways.

Food safety is a team effort, and a company’s efforts in protecting its consumers (and its brand) can only be as good as the people, at all levels, who are working toward those goals every day. And while food safety culture might be tough to explain, measure or quantify at times, its importance can’t be understated. You can have modern equipment, a fantastic food safety management system and the best data in the world, but they’re useless without the people who put them into practice. Food safety culture is about hiring, training and behavior. And it’s never done.

To provide a more fundamental understanding of food safety culture, what it looks like, why it’s important and how it can be fun, QA is bringing together an array of speakers for this virtual conference. Register today for the noon-4:30 p.m. event!
