In theory an employer must eliminate risks, or if not control them to the fullest extent possible. In the fast food industry there are certain regulations that are intended to eliminate the risk of bad food quality but these regulations do not eliminate the ability of a fast food outlet to produce food that is harmful to those who consume it. For example the Food Act (2003) and the Food Regulation Act (2004), that cover issues such as food standards and handling operations (The Hills Shire Council, 2009, website) There are two sections needed for successful OHS management in the fast food industry; the appropriate procedures in place and the implementation of them by employees and management. KFC headquarters would have strict policies and practices in place but if management and the employees do not abide by them then they are useless.…

One of the codes of ethics of businesses that deal in food is to make food that is safe to consume. However, nowadays many cases have cropped up where the businesses have been running unethically. For example, in 2009, 9 outlets of KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) were closed down in Mauritius as Salmonella bacteria had been found in over 10 tons of seized chicken meat. Yet, the KFC food poisoning is not only a problem in Mauritius, but also in other countries where this fast food exists. In Australia, in 2005, a girl suffered brain damage from salmonella poisoning after eating a chicken twister at KFC. That girl is now confined to a wheelchair. Another recent case of food poisoning is the Marday cake shop one; the incident claimed one life and infected over 100 people. The culprits, Staphylococcus bacteria, were later discovered in the cakes. These bacteria cause mild to severe illnesses. In fact, they produce a toxin, which causes nausea, severe vomiting, dizziness, and abdominal cramping, in dairy products, salads and cakes filled with cream. These cases are loudly screaming the fact that employees are growingly violating business ethics; they are not concerned with the health safety of their own people.…

Although most people do not realize it, patrons of food establishments place their lives in the establishments' hands. Improper storing and labeling of food items or selling slightly-expired food can be tempting from a financial perspective but can lead to serious injury or worse due to food poisoning, cross-contamination or allergic reactions. Food establishments should include firm commitments to food safety in their codes of ethics, always placing food safety above financial concerns. This includes going beyond the letter of the law to enforce the highest product quality standards. A code of ethics should include a commitment to sell only healthy products and never to use harmful ingredients. (http://smallbusiness.chron.com/code-ethics-food-establishments-10815.html)…

Dubai’s vision is to establish a world-class food safety system that helps provide safe food to the residents and the several millions that visit the Emirate each year. We envision a system that ensures the highest standards of food safety - from the port to the plate. We would like the system to be so comprehensive and appealing that others are encouraged to use it as a model. Our vision will become a reality only when the government, food industry, service providers, educational and research organisations and the consumers collectively commit to work together and apply sound principles of food safety based on science and research. We have begun the process by promoting a positive food safety culture among food establishments in the Emirate, by urging the management to be responsible and accountable through our proprietary Person In-Charge (PIC) program, which we introduced in 2010. The responsibility is not only with the PIC but also with other food handlers in the establishments, their owners, regulators and also the consumers. In other words, it must be stressed that food safety is a shared responsibility involving all the residents of the Emirate. Through the Food Code, we are now building on the foundations laid by the PIC and other regulatory programs, which arm them with the necessary knowledge about the systems and processes needed to ensure an effective food safety culture. An integrated approach is necessary to ensure food safety from the place of primary production up to the point of consumption. The Food Control Department of Dubai Municipality will ensure that regulatory programs are science- and risk-based as far as possible. The Food Code is designed to assist the Person In-Charge (PICs) at food establishments to understand their obligations and to carry out operations as per the requirement. The Food Code has been developed also to help the food industry and the law-enforcement officers…

For hundreds of years, governments have had an interest in regulating food processing to ensure the safety and wholesomeness of the foods consumed by their citizens. The earliest known food law was written in Japan in AD 702. In Britain, the first Pure Food Laws were enacted during the 1860s to combat adulteration, the secret use of additives to stretch wholesome foods with cheaper, no nutritious (and sometimes dangerous) ingredients. This practice became common during the Middle Ages (5th century to 15th century), when cities began to grow…
