FSMA Fridays: FDA Access To Records Under FSMA (Part Two Of Four)

On the last Friday of every month, Barbara Levin of SafetyChain, a leading provider of food safety and quality assurance automation and compliance solutions, hosts FSMA Fridays™, the leading online forum for the food and beverage community to learn the latest information about the FDA’s Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). Featuring Dr. David Acheson, the popular monthly interactive pod/webcast is sponsored by SafetyChain Software and The Acheson Group.

In the first portion of FSMA Fridays: FDA Access To Records Under FSMA, Jill Bender and the Acheson Group panel discussed the FDA’s extension to the comment period for the rule regarding the sanitary transport of human and animal food, how FSMA affects how the FDA can access food companies records, why a change to what the FDA can access is necessary, what the process of the FDA retrieving records is, and the time frame necessary to access the records. Here, in the second portion, the panel will discuss the types of information the FDA can ask food processors and food manufacturers for, the list of items the FDA can access, and how the FDA is protecting food producers’ recipes with access to such important information. Additionally, the panel will address where this information can be found.
