Regulatory constraints and current management practices put the onus on food manufacturers to take all reasonable precautions where hygiene is concerned. A food hygiene audit is the first step towards identifying weaknesses in an operation, and this book explains in detail the areas to be inspected during such an audit. The legislative situation is covered by authors from both sides of the Atlantic, although the procedures described are universally applicable. Many companies employ expensive consultants to advise them on this subject, and this book provides a cost-effective supplement or alternative.
