FSSAI Initiatives
We are an FSSAI partner in implementing some of the initiatives that are being driven by the regulator to ensure safe and healthy food for the nation.
FosTac Program
FosTac (Food Safety Training and Certification) is a training program mandated by FSSAI, the regulatory and standards of India. Every food establishment is required to have one certified food safety supervisor for every 25 food handlers.
We are a training partner of FSSAI and we offer various courses under this program, namely the Basic Program for Food Handlers, Food Safety Supervisor for Advanced Manufacturing and Advanced Catering, Storage and Distribution and other vertical specific programs on milk and milk products, bakery, meat and poultry and the like. The duration of the courses vary from a 4 hour course for food handlers to 2 days for some of the special programs.
You can find the list of upcoming trainings here.
Hygiene Rating Program
We are an FSSAI partner on the Serve Safe program and can conduct audit on their behalf to provide a suitable hygiene rating score. This hygiene rating score may be displayed at the premises, or online, to communicate to the consumer that you care about the food safety and hygiene. You may also participate in audit for being a responsible place to eat to indicate that you are not just following the requirements but championing the cause.
Eat Right Campus
The Eat Right Campus is an initiative by the FSSAI to ensure the citizens eat Safe and Nutritious Food . The Safe and Nutritious Food (SNF) initiative has been launched to bring about social and behavioral change among citizens around food safety, hygiene and healthy diets in all spheres of life- at ‘Home’, ‘School’, ‘Workplace’ or while ‘Eating Out’.
The philosophy is to create informative content and engagement material, along with simple messaging asking citizens to be aware, be cognizant and be receptive to SNF (safe and nutritious food). FSSAI is taking multiple initiatives to make the information available to the customers by asking businesses to get themselves rates through audits, put up signage which inform the customers that they care for the hygiene. There is also a trainings available for the FBOs to learn about it.
Eat Right School Program
The Eat Right School initiative of FSSAI is designed to deliver and reinforce the message of safe and nutritious food through both curricular and co-curricular activities, and ensure an enabling legislative and regulatory framework to promote safe and wholesome food in both government and private schools across the country.
As an implementation partner for the Eat Right School program, we can help you with the regulatory compliance, training and creating educational and engagement programs for both the students and the parents
BHOG Program
Places of Worship (PoW) are a very important part of Indian society and food served in these places is regarded as pure and sacred. BHOG (Blissful Hygienic Offering to God) is a part of the Eat Right initiative to encourage PoW to adopt and maintain food safety and hygiene while preparing prasad/food and includes training the food handlers and vendors in and around the premises of the PoW. Implementation of BHOG would help to ensure that safe and wholesome prasad is received by the devotees along with the blessings of God.
We help doing the per-assessment audits, trainings and certification audits or getting the place of worship certified under BHOG. We have completed this for over 10 placed of worship
