BEMA's Food Safety & Sanitation Group Kick Off First Meeting of 2021
In January, Bakery Equipment Manufacturers and Allieds (BEMA) kicked of its first Baking Industry Forum (BIF) meeting of the New Year. The meeting heard from members of the Food Safety & Sanitation group, as well as the Workforce group.
The Food Safety & Sanitation group reported on the Overall Risk Assessment tool (ORA) and its collaborative work with BEMA’s Safety & Sanitation Virtual Roundtable group. As a result of the work performed, the ORA tool is ready for use in the production environment. The Baking Industry Forum is eager for companies to try out the ORA tool. Outcomes will be the topic of discussion during the next Food Safety & Sanitation virtual roundtable with subsequent analysis at a spring webinar and/or at the June Convention.
