FDA Oral Culture Learner Project – Educational Videos for Retail Food Employees
In an effort to enhance retail food safety, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has released three video testimonials to educate retail and food service employees on the possible, dire consequences of poor preparation practices and provide tips to prevent foodborne illness. The videos support the FDA’s Retail Food Safety Initiative, which seeks to strengthen the retail and food service industry’s active managerial control of foodborne illness risk factors.
