Food safety regulations are monitored by local, state, and federal government agencies and change often. Your business must stay up to date with any new regulations and ensure full compliance. This includes providing safe ingredients, training food handlers appropriately, storing food at proper temperatures, regularly auditing procedures to identify issues, disposing of spoiled or contaminated food promptly and following pest control measures. Your local health authority or government agency can provide further guidance on ensuring compliance with food safety regulations. Additionally you should refer to the relevant industry standards when crafting policies for your business.

Currently, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) oversees public health regulations regarding food safety. All businesses that manufacture, process, pack or store food must adhere to these regulations and ensure compliance with various standards, including Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs), Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), sanitary transportation guidelines and labeling requirements.

Each state also has its own set of laws that must be followed for food-related businesses. These laws cover everything from labeling to sales in order to protect citizens' health and safety. It is important that you familiarize yourself with these regulations so that your business is in compliance. Additionally, it may be beneficial to consult an industry expert who can help guide you through the complex world of public health regulation adherence.
