The responsibility for providing healthy food involves all members of the production chain from input supplier to the distributor and consumer of food. Children and older adults represent the most vulnerable consumers for acquiring food-borne illness (FBI), meaning that the risk factors produced in food-processing targeted for this population group must be reduced. A clean-up plan was thus designed and implemented following the guideline laid down in decree 3075/1997 to reduce FBI risk factors in a population of children and older adults. A training plan was also conducted for handling staff involved in receiving, storing, packaging and distributing raw materials in a food distributor. The clean-up plan and training led to a 40 % to 70 % increase in compliance with best manufacturing practices (BPM). These results represent a solid basis for ensuring food safety and reducing the risk of acquiring FBI in the study population. This article also provides an outline for easily acquiring the necessary methodology for implementing a clean-up plan in a food industry.
提供健康食品的责任涉及从投入供应商到食品经销商和消费者的生产链所有成员。儿童和老年人是最易感染食源性疾病（FBI）的消费者群体，这意味着必须减少针对该人群的食品加工过程中产生的风险因素。因此，根据第3075/1997号法令规定的指导方针，设计并实施了一项清理计划，以降低儿童和老年人群体中的食源性疾病风险因素。还为食品经销商中参与接收、储存、包装和分发原材料的处理人员开展了一项培训计划。清理计划和培训使最佳生产规范（BPM）的合规率提高了40%至70%。这些结果为确保食品安全和降低研究人群中感染食源性疾病的风险奠定了坚实基础。本文还概述了如何轻松获取在食品行业实施清理计划所需的方法。
