           What is food safety?<\/span><\/h2>\n

           Food safety is a scientific discipline describing handling, preparation, and storage of food in ways that prevent food-borne illness. This includes a number of routines that should be followed to avoid potential health hazards.<\/span><\/p>\n

           Food safety\u00a0refers to the conditions and practices that preserve the quality of\u00a0food to prevent contamination and\u00a0food-borne illnesses. The\u00a0Food Standards Agency (UK)\u00a0educates consumers about the importance of\u00a0safe foodhandling and how to reduce the risks associated with foodborne illness.<\/span><\/p>\n

           It is important for people to understand how their behavior and activities contribute to the\u00a0safety\u00a0of\u00a0food\u00a0and how they can decrease the risk of foodborne illness. From processes on the farm to practices in the kitchen, human activities play an important role in\u00a0food safety.<\/span><\/p>\n

           Food Safety Act 1990 – a guide for UK businesses<\/span><\/h2>\n

           The Food Safety Act 1990 (as amended) provides the framework for all food legislation in Britain. The guidance is for all types of food business in England, Wales and Scotland. Similar legislation applies in Northern Ireland.<\/span><\/p>\n

           The main responsibilities for all food businesses under the Act are:<\/span><\/p>\n

           \n
           • to ensure you do not include anything in food, remove anything from food or treat food in any way which means it would be damaging to the health of people eating it<\/span><\/li>\n
           • to ensure that the food you serve or sell is of the nature, substance or quality which consumers would expect<\/span><\/li>\n
           • to ensure that the food is labelled, advertised and presented in a way that is not false or misleading<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

             The guidance, takes account of amendments to the Act in the General Food Regulations 2004 and the Food Safety Act 1990 (Amendment) Regulations 2004.<\/span><\/p>\n

             What is the Skills for Health\u2019 UK \u2018Core Skills Training Framework\u2019 (CSTF)?<\/span><\/h2>\n
