Food Safety Management is the systematic approach organizations use to ensure that food products are safe for consumption at every stage of production, processing, handling, and distribution. It involves identifying potential hazards (biological, chemical, and physical), implementing control measures to prevent contamination, complying with legal and industry standards, and continuously monitoring and improving processes. A well-structured Food Safety Management System (FSMS), such as one based on ISO 22000 or HACCP principles, helps protect consumer health, maintain product quality, and build trust in food businesses.
