Food Safety Culture Template

A Critical Piece of the Food Safety Culture Puzzle

Food safety is evolving from having a historical written food safety plan to now having a strong food safety culture integrated with that plan. It is clear that written policies and procedures alone are not enough to prevent food recalls. Companies must have a strong food safety culture that supports these written programs.

Building a strong culture isn’t always easy. Just like having a written procedure does not guarantee success for your food safety plan, simply having a written procedure for your food safety culture initiative does not mean it will be transforming and successful. It’s a multi-year process of cultural evolution, not an annual quality check.

Our food safety culture template takes a multi-year approach and is designed to include the 5 dimensions of food safety culture as identified by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI). The 5 dimensions focus on vision and mission, people, hazards and risk awareness, adaptability and consistency. This unlocked, Word template can be used by organizations who are just getting started with creating a new program or by those who are needing a fresh revision of their current culture plan. Below is a sample of the template.
