The World Health Organizations website includes ten facts on food safety which they say account for the main reasons why millions of people fall ill every year and many die as a result of eating unsafe food. Serious outbreaks of foodborne disease have been documented on every continent in the past decade, and in many countries rates of illnesses are increasing significantly. Given the scale of the problem, this ebook explores the ways in which government agencies and industry can work together to develop a comprehensive strategy to improve food safety management standards in the hospitality industry. The editor Eunice Taylor led the team that developed Safer Food Better Business for the UK Food Standards Agency from 2001-2005 and her ebook builds on recent work with the Abu Dhabi Food Control Authority. The writing team draw on a long-term project in Abu Dhabi to provide both policy guidelines and action points for industry.
