Leadership Certification Training: Transportation Food Safety and Quality for Shippers, Carriers and Receivers at San Diego, CA

Overview:

In order to qualify as a food safety transportation leader, you will need to understand what and how to implement FDA FSMA rules on the sanitary transportation of human and animal foods. This training will include detailed information on these rules and will include food safety topics generally established by FSMA to assist in your company's approach to transportation tools, load, unload, driver and transportation food safety practices across shippers, carriers and receivers.

Over 84,000 businesses will be impacted by these new rules. The shift from "transportation food safety guidance" to "rules" means that the FDA now has enforcement powers that did not previously exist and these powers impact food importers and exporters as well as all food shipments intended for food consumed in the United States.

We will cover how you can assess your current operations and build a plan and complete system designed to meet customer and FDA FSMA requirements.

Why should you attend?

Most current food safety standards and facility audits do not protect food from adulteration during food transportation processes. With the FDA's publication of the Proposed Rules on the Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Foods, it is clear that food container tracking, sanitation, temperature control, and record keeping are becoming legal food supply chain issues requiring internal shipper, carrier and receiver food company control.

This critical transportation food safety component must be added to your overall company food safety plan and implementation schedule.

On average food delivered to US consumers travels over 2000 miles from the farm to the consumer. Your customers and new FSMA rules will require new logistics leaders to become certified to help companies meet new and challenging FDA food safety maintenance and transportation process requirements. Perishable foods not completely enclosed by a container will be impacted during load, unload and movement in trucks, by rail or even in bins, containers, ships, or as part of air freight. Control over the tools used in your distribution processes and drivers will also be required.

If your company transports or causes food to be transported, you can become certified to lead and prepare your company to meet new transportation standards designed to prevent adulteration of food on the move.

Get trained and certified, stay on top of new FSMA rules, and prepare your company to build implementation teams who will standardize food transportation processes across all company locations.

This 2 day seminar will provide attendees with a certificate from TransCert at the Sanitary Cold Chain. A complete documentation system and container checklist is included.
