Module 3.1. PROVIDING SAFE FOOD AND THE PHILIPPINE FOOD SAFETY FRAMEWORK

B. Philippine Food Safety Framework

The Philippine food safety framework is the strength of the food regulatory agencies as it provides guidance and order. It is noted that the country has enough regulatory agencies: what is needed is a smooth networking among themselves and clear relationship (FAO and WHO, 2014). Here are four components within the framework namely;
• Farm and Aquaculture which includes animals, fish, plants, and their by-products;
• Food Industry which includes the food manufacturers, distributors, and food outlets;
• Food Service, which covers restaurants, caterers, and street foods; and
• Household Food Consumption which is primarily concerned with the consumers.
These four components work on the safety assessment processes utilizing the different regulatory tools that involve licensing, accreditation, inspection, investigation, monitoring. surveillance, research, and management processes utilizing training, and disease management depending on the areas of concern of each component.
