In the last few months, we have spent a lot of time talking about biological hazards such as Listeria monocytogenes. But your HACCP system needs to consider other hazards too. In this webinar we will be discussing the hazards associated with non-food chemicals you have in your facilities such as lubricants and cleaning products.How can you be sure that you are not introducing hazards that could harm your consumer? Audit criteria require the registration of non-food chemicals. The process and significance of this requirement will be explained by Stephanie Ludwig of NSF International, who is based in the USA.

Expanding global chemical regulation implementation, including new data requirements and scrutiny, is impacting the availability of new technology for electrical products.

This presentation will introduce a variety of relevant codes, how they are applicable, and their relevance to improving chemical process safety. It will also discuss the main focuses of these codes and several ways in which process areas can easily become safer.
