Abstract

In modern society, the quality and safety of food plays an important role. To ensure these significant indicators, it is necessary to create an effective system of state control. Such a system has been most successfully implemented in countries and associations such as the European Union, the United States of America and Japan. Successful attempts are also being made in Ukraine's neighboring countries to establish a system of coordination and control over the quality and safety of food products. In addition, many countries implemented sanitary control system based on HACCP and policy from farm to consumer and the system of rapid alerts on threats to food and animal feed. The European Union supervision of compliance requirements and standards, which aim to guarantee food safety engaged in the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Social Affairs and the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications. The basic principles of regulating the system of compliance with the quality and safety of food are contained in the Law On Food, Regulation of the European Parliament and the EU Council №178 / 2002 EU. In the United States, food safety is monitored by a number of government agencies at various levels: federal, state, and local. At the federal level, 15 agencies collectively administer at least 30 food safety laws. In Japan, food safety is regulated by the Food Sanitation Act. According to the Act responsibility for ensuring safe food is shared by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries. In the Republic of Belarus, the main legal act in the field of food security is the Law On the quality and safety of raw materials and food for human life and health. Confirmation of the quality and safety of food products can be obtained at the Republican Unitary Enterprise Scientific and Practical Center of Hygiene.
