The second annual World Food Safety Day (WFSD) returns on June 7, 2020 under the theme “Food safety, everyone’s business.”

WFSD was originally declared by the United Nations on June 7, 2019, to draw global attention and inspire action to help prevent, detect and manage foodborne risks, contributing to food security, human health, economic prosperity, agriculture, market access, tourism and sustainable development. 

This year’s celebration focuses on food safety being a shared responsibility—from farm to table—including governments, to producers, to consumers.

A wider reaching global supply chain exposes our food and those companies within the food supply chain to increased risk. KTL is committed to supporting companies in our increasingly complex world with effectively operating across the food supply chain, while managing food safety and quality risks.  

Both the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and World Health Organization (WHO) offer a number of resources for companies and individuals to participate in World Food Safety Day and help reduce food safety risks.
