FDA Webinar on the Food Traceability Final Rule
The U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) held an informational webinar on the recently released Food Traceability final rule issued under the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA). The final rule is designed to facilitate faster identification and rapid removal of potentially contaminated food from the market, resulting in fewer foodborne illnesses and/or deaths.
During the webinar, the FDA provided an overview of the final rule, including the foods and entities covered by the rule, explained the exemptions from the rule, and discussed the recordkeeping requirements of the rule. Watch the on-demand webinar here.
