The food industry has changed considerably over the last decade, with the advent of technology and more stringent standards of hygiene. But this has also led to an increased risk of cross-contamination. Trained staff are needed to prevent these risks, but many employers are reluctant to provide on-the-job training for employees on sanitation and hygiene issues. This is where Food Law Weekly (FLW) comes in; it provides detailed advice on important food-related legal issues through its website, which includes links to relevant cases and legislation. It is important to remember, however, that it is not necessary to refer to FLW every time there is a food safety problem. Often it will be sufficient for employers simply to offer their staff with training on how to handle foodstuffs safely. The FLW website also includes practical information regarding the duty of care; the duty of care applies in both the supply chain and onsite in an environment where food is prepared or processed by employees (notably at work). It includes details of the duty of care and its practical application, which employers must ensure they comply with through their food safety policies and procedures. The website includes detailed advice on all legal issues affecting the food industry, including food law, hygiene and environmental issues. Its website also lists contact details for all lawyers (and others) offering advice on these topics. Many employers do not realise that they are legally liable for an employee suffering serious illness or injury arising out of their work; in some cases, this liability extends to their dependants. This is the case even if the employer was not negligent (or without fault) in any way. This means that it is important for employers to make sure they have proper health and safety policies and procedures in place. In particular, employers must concentrate on ensuring that their health and safety policies cover all aspects of the employer’s responsibility for the safety of employees. It is not usually possible for an employer to rely on negligence as a defence to a claim, especially if the injury is serious – even if there have been no financial or other losses – unless this is found to be so by a court. Under normal circumstances, the only exception is where it turns out that an employer was innocent of any negligence. The FLW website provides advice on legal issues relating to health and safety. There are a number of ways in which employers can solve problems in this area. It is a good idea to have a contact person in the organisation who is responsible for health and safety, to which individuals can complain if they have been provided with unsafe equipment. In addition, it is important to ensure that employees know exactly what their own responsibilities are when it comes to health and safety matters. When employers decide that they need to find new staff, the FLW website has information on how this should be done; if employers follow the site's advice, work will be done legally and safely. cfa1e77820
