I recently attended an insightful webinar on " Root Cause Analysis: Adopting Standard Practices for the Food Industry"' by International Association for Food Protection and Ontario Food Protection Association . The session highlighted the importance of implementing systematic approaches to identify and address underlying issues in food safety and quality. The speakers provided valuable techniques and frameworks that can be applied to enhance our preventive measures and ensure compliance with industry standards. It was a great opportunity to learn from experts and connect with fellow professionals dedicated to advancing food safety practices. Looking forward to integrating these strategies into our processes! #FoodSafety #RootCauseAnalysis #IAFPWebinar
