Abstract

Emerging food safety risks refers to issues, that present a risk to human health, arising from either unknown hazards or known hazards that are subject to new influences. Food safety hazards maybe microbial, chemical residues, environmental contaminants, physical hazards and infestation, all of which can be detrimental to human health. The emergence of food safety risks is often complex and impacts beyond specific geographic, societal and organisational boundaries. Therefore, strategies at identifying, and subsequently managing, emerging food safety issues must take into account the globalisation and interconnectedness of global food chains and rapid transfer of information. Successful detection of emerging risks requires three key components: reliable data sources and skilled human intervention and an intelligence strategy.
