Food Standards Scotland: Online Guidance on Charcuterie Safety

Description

FSS wish to produce a new online risk assessment tool focused on the safe production and processing of meat charcuterie products (i.e. deli meats/cold cuts etc). This new tool will be of similar structure to the existing tools, containing an interactive risk assessment function to allow FBOs to review their practices, alongside useful resources, in an easy to use format. In contrast to the existing tools, this one will consider relevant chemical as well as microbiological hazards because these types of products often use chemical agents as part of their production. To achieve this, FSS require a Supplier to produce the information content and assessment aspects of the tool.
