We surveyed the opinions of Finnish food business operators (FBOs) about the uniformity of local official food control and its importance for dairy, fishery and meat plants. A total of 136 FBOs responded to the questionnaire. Most FBOs considered official food control to be important for food safety and were generally satisfied with its quality. However, they often did not perceive official food control as being uniform, and 23% even considered it arbitrary. Small-sized FBOs were particularly critical of the relevance of control actions. The better the FBOs assessed their cooperation with the inspector, the higher they assessed the quality, uniformity and benefits of official food control. The cooperative approach in control practices should be emphasized to support the positive views of FBOs about official food control, thus promoting food safety. Cross-audits among local food control units are recommended to improve the FBOs' experience of uniformity of food control.
我们调查了芬兰食品企业经营者（FBOs）对当地官方食品监管的一致性及其对乳制品、渔业和肉类加工厂的重要性的看法。共有136家FBOs回复了问卷。大多数FBOs认为官方食品监管对食品安全很重要，并且总体上对其质量感到满意。然而，他们常常感觉官方食品监管缺乏一致性，甚至有23%的人认为其具有随意性。小型FBOs对监管行动的相关性尤为不满。FBOs评估其与检查员合作的情况越好，他们对官方食品监管的质量、一致性和效益的评价就越高。应强调监管实践中的合作方式，以支持FBOs对官方食品监管的积极看法，从而促进食品安全。建议在当地食品监管单位之间进行交叉审核，以改善FBOs对食品监管一致性的体验。
