Research shows that the risk of introducing foodborne illness in the food supply chain can be greatly reduced by instilling a food safety culture in your company. Dr. Ben Chapman and Laura Nelson will discuss how communicating and helping your associates internalize the right information can drive behavior change to create a very effective food safety culture in retail establishments AND reduce your risks. We invite you to join a webinar, hosted by FMI’s SafeMark program, for the retail industry to further explore the role of effective food safety training in enhancing your organization's food safety culture.
In this webinar, attendees will learn:
•How to create a sense of ownership and awareness of food safety in your associates
•The most effective food safety training tools for retail and the best ways to use them
•How to ensure continued associate compliance in food safety through proactive coaching and on-the-floor observations
