Many food safety issues arise from preventable mistakes. Understanding these common pitfalls can help businesses strengthen their operations and avoid violations.

1. Poor Documentation

Regulatory bodies require accurate records. Missing or incorrect documentation can result in compliance failure.

2. Inadequate Cleaning and Sanitation

Dirty equipment or surfaces lead to contamination. Consistent cleaning is essential.

3. Temperature Abuse

Improper cold storage or cooking temperatures are major safety hazards.

4. Ignoring Allergen Controls

Cross-contact incidents are common and dangerous. Allergen management is non-negotiable.

5. Weak Internal Audits

Internal audits help businesses identify issues before regulators do.
