Development of a FAO model to support risk categorization of food business operators in low and middle-income countries: from model design to the selection and relative weighting of food-safety related risk factors
The implementation of effective risk-based inspection and oversight services, along with the judicious use of dedicated resources, are crucial components of any food control system. The present study aimed to identify and select microbial food safety-related risk factors to be included in a model designed to support risk categorization of food business operators in the context of low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) and to assess the relative importance of each risk factor selected for inclusion through an expert elicitation process. By applying this iterative process to available data in four LMICs, 14 relevant risk factors were selected and grouped into inherent, mitigation, and compliance clusters. To alleviate the scarcity of data related to some risk factors pertaining to critical control points or prerequisite program elements, consideration of the type of final product and the likelihood of survival and growth of foodborne pathogens was included and assessed by experts. This model, once validated by pilot projects in the field, should become a useful tool supporting the implementation of risk-based inspections to manage risk in LMICs.
期刊介绍:
Food Control is an international journal that provides essential information for those involved in food safety and process control.
Food Control covers the below areas that relate to food process control or to food safety of human foods:
• Microbial food safety and antimicrobial systems
• Mycotoxins
• Hazard analysis, HACCP and food safety objectives
• Risk assessment, including microbial and chemical hazards
• Quality assurance
• Good manufacturing practices
• Food process systems design and control
• Food Packaging technology and materials in contact with foods
• Rapid methods of analysis and detection, including sensor technology
• Codes of practice, legislation and international harmonization
• Consumer issues
• Education, training and research needs.
The scope of Food Control is comprehensive and includes original research papers, authoritative reviews, short communications, comment articles that report on new developments in food control, and position papers.
