[FOOD_CO-OP] food safety risk plan - we want *your* feedback please!!!

[Monika Baumann]

Hi all!

One of the things we talked about at the last meeting was food safety, hygiene and health regulations, etc. with the aim of making sure we meet all the food safety regulations stuff we are supposed. One of the things we need to have, and more importantly implement, is a food safety risk plan. Attatched as a word document and cut and pasted below is a draft list of some ideas and things that was brought up at the meeting and talked about.

 

As members of the coop, we'd really like your input, help, suggestiosn and opinions whether you work in teh shop, do your shopping there etc. please email stuff back to me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) rather than the email list so i can compile it and the get it back to everyone in one email....

 

 the more feedback, people involved in putting this thing together, hopefully the better it will be. remember, the the beauty of being a coop is that EVERYONE's opinion counts and its by everyone working together that it all comes together... the stuff below is only a draft and a suggestion, the coop and all its members need to come up with some thing everyone's happy with and that will work...so over to you!
