Foreign material contamination has emerged as a critical concern for food safety professionals, prompting the development of enhanced technologies, tools and strategies for FSQA teams to mitigate recall risks.

But even with improvements in technology, producers still fall across a fairly wide spectrum in terms of their ability to move from reactive mitigation approaches that are solely event-driven to very mature detection and prevention schemes.

Join us for this webinar, in partnership with third-party inspection provider FlexXray, as we explore:

In 2023, USDA FSIS issued a guideline on ready-to-eat (RTE) fermented, salt-cured, and dried products, outlining responses to commonly asked questions about these products, where cooking is not the primary lethality step. Some products impacted by this guideline are summer sausage, pepperoni, salami, and country-cured ham. Join experts from Eurofins in this webinar to discuss considerations in creating validation studies.

RTE manufacturers face the constant challenge of controlling Listeria monocytogenes to produce safe, nutritious products. This intimate workshop covers the latest developments in Listeria control, sanitation, sanitary design, environmental monitoring, investigations, corrective actions, and critical information to help processors stay current on regulatory issues and changes. Attendees will engage in hands-on exercises, including a critical thinking exercise focused on ‘seek and destroy’ scenarios.
