Insanitary Conditions
Proper and effective sanitation practices and conditions are an essential part of all safe food manufacturing processes. Insanitary facilities and equipment and poor food handling and personal hygiene practices by employees create an environment in which pathogens and other food safety hazards can contaminate and adulterate products. Consequently, proper sanitation is a fundamental requirement under both the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA) and the Poultry Products Inspection Act (PPIA).
