Sanitary Food Transportation
Course Length: 20 minutes
Overview: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), an agency that carriers and drivers may not be used to dealing with, published the "Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food" rule on April 6, 2016.
This rule, published under the Food Safety Modernization Act (or FSMA), requires anyone involved in transporting human and animal food by motor or rail vehicle to follow recognized best practices for sanitary transportation. Such practices include maintaining proper temperatures, adequately cleaning vehicles between loads, and protecting food during transport.
