Food safety at the top table – whitepaper
Drawing on insights from these three industry leaders, this LRQA whitepaper explores the widening gap between operational control and strategic oversight, the cultural and structural barriers that keep food safety off the enterprise risk agenda, and the governance models that can close this gap. With practical advice on embedding food safety into enterprise risk management, using leading indicators and reframing conversations in the language of business impact, it challenges senior executives to view food safety as a driver of resilience, innovation and long-term growth.
