Healthy environment
In charge in security operations, emergency preparedness and planning as well as occupational health and safety
Risk management
Two important underlying considerations to the attention
- Keep the interest and we’ll being of the customers
- Trading of food should be facilitated
Biological, physical and chemical agent in or condition of food with the potential to couse harm
Hazard
Estimate of the probability and severity of the adverse health effects is exposed populations consequential to hazards in food. Is about uncertainty
Risk
Fundamental methodology underlying the development of food standards
Risk analysis
Refers to the realtime exchange of information, advice and opinions between experts and people facing treats to their health, economic and social well being
Risk communication
Theory, tools and practical skills for communicating about risk
Effective risk communication
Is the weighing of available options for managing a food safety issue in light of scientific information
Evaluation of risk management
Is a systematic process of evaluating the potential risk that may be involved in a projected activity or undertaking
Risk assessment
HCS
Hazard communication standard
To ensure that the hazards in all chemicals produced or imported are classified hazards is transmitted to employees and employers
Hazard communication standard
Provides specific criteria for classification of health and physical hazards as well as classification of mixture
Hazard classification
Provide a label that includes harmonized signal words, pictogram and hazard statement
Labels
Have a specified (16 section format)
Safety data sheet
Required to train workers by (December 1 2013) on the new labels elements and safety data sheet format to facilitate recognition and understanding
Information and training
Means chemical for which there is statistically significant evidence based on the least one study that acute or chronic health may occur in exposed employees
Health hazard
Formed by algae called (algal toxins)
Aquatic biotoxins
Pesticides, veterinary drugs, or environment pollutants
Man made chemicals
Apple and pear seed and kernel of
Apricot (amygladin) into__
Hydrogen cyanide
Defined as foods that are spoiled or tainted because they either contains microorganisms, such as bacteria, parasites and toxic substances that make unfit for consumption

Food
Overall quality if food fit for consumption
Safety
Is a health of being clean and conductive to health
Sanitation

Cleanliness
Branch of biology that deals with microorganisms and their effect on other microorganisms
Microbiology
Organisms of microscopic or submicroscopic size
Microorganisms
Microbial infection resulting from ingestion of contaminated foods
Food infection
type of illness caused by toxins . Under certain bacteria produce chemical compounds called toxins
Food intoxication
Means the original nutritional value, texture, flavor of the food are damage the food become harmful to people and unsuitable to eat
Food spoilage
A disease carried or transmitted to people by food
Food borne illness
May cause food borne illness
Biological contaminants
Any foreign object that accidentally find it’s way to food
Physical contaminants
A chemical substance that can cause food borne illness
Chemical contaminants
Toxic metals
Lead, copper, brass,zinc, antimony, cadmium
Potential to cause an adverse health effects (microbiological, chemical or physical agents)
