FSS Incident Prevention Strategic Plan

Our incident prevention strategic plan highlights five goals that we aim to achieve over the next couple of years. 


As part of this strategy, we monitor food and feed safety patterns in Scotland. We also provide guidance and workshops to industry. We work closely with partners such as local authorities, Public Health Scotland (PHS), Food Standards Agency (FSA) and other government departments to make sure food incidents are managed effectively.
