This weekend I am podcasting with a great friend and fellow expert in food safety leadership Bryan Armentrout from The Food Leadership Group.
Here are some points we will cover in our chat:
Topic: Food Safety and Compliance – What Happens When the System is Stressed?

1. Tell us a little bit more about your background and what you are up to
a. – you’re also a Justice of the Peace?
b. What areas have you been focusing on?

2. You are out there in the real world, visiting clients and seeing what is really going on, what are you seeing?

3. What happens to systems when they are stressed?
a. Is the referee on the field?
b. What happened during Covid?
i. Survival versus following the rules
ii. Compliance is not a sustainable act
iii. Food fraud (Chinese pet food example)
iv. Ingredient substitution/ JIT failures and Toilet Paper (scarcity mentality)

4. How are audits failing us?
a. Compliance and checking the box
i. You get what you measure – so be very careful what you choose
b. Designed to only see what is going wrong, never what is going right
c. Auditors never focus on best practices and knowledge transfer (that’s why you are here)
d. If the rules are not being following, how do more rules make it better?
i. FDA/ GFSI
ii. Auditor calibration
e. Reports are always after the fact – what are you doing to prevent issues?

5. I don’t know much about art, but I know what I like…
a. Food Safety Culture is easy to see, hard to duplicate
i. Supervisor/ Team interaction is key
b. Can they “push the red button?”
c. Would you feed this to your grandchildren?
d. Training and “management by exception”

6. Great, what do we actually do about this?
a. Food Safety is not food compliance
b. Food Safety behavior and who can push the button
i. Conversations with customers and consumers
ii. Should personnel practices be a CCP?
iii. People make product, not machines
c. Find strengths, not faults and build upon them
