The personnel, operation sites, sanitation management of facilities and quality assurance system of the manufacturers of food utensils, food containers or packaging shall meet the Regulations on Good Hygiene Practice for Food (GHP). In order to investigate the compliance of GHP by those businesses with self-management requirements, Taiwan Food and Drug Administration (TFDA) conducted on-site visit to 54 food businesses, that manufacture metal and plastic food utensils, food containers or packaging from 2015 to 2018. The results showed that the metal manufacturers were found with more non-compliant items and less correction rate than those of plastic manufacturers. Besides, the highest rate of noncompliance on metal manufacturers derived from personnel management (82.6%) and that of the plastic manufacturers deviated from quality assurance (5.7%). In the future, it is recommended to continue to guide and supervise the businesses to follow the Act Governing Food Safety and Sanitation and related regulations, and strengthen their recognition of regulations and self-management, so as to ensure the hygiene and safety of food utensils, food containers or packaging. |
