Introduction The International Commission on Microbiological Specifications for Foods (ICMSF) has proposed a preventative scheme for managing microbial risks in foods that introduces the important new concept of a food safety objective (FSO). The FSO concept translates public health risk into a definable goal: a specified maximum frequency and/or concentration of a [microbiological] hazard in a...

This study aims to identify and determine risks using the Hazard Identification Risk Assessment Control (HIRARC) method. By conducting prior monitoring interviewing workers find out impacts experienced by workers. Making a HIRARC table assessing each aspect of hazards, work controls that have been carried classifying based on 5 hierarchies. Data processing is conducted analyzing potential hazar...
