Fruit and Vegetable Food Safety Training Video for Field Employees

Safely producing fruits and vegetables requires everyone involved in planting, growing, harvesting, packing, and transporting fresh produce to understand food safety practices, as well as commitment from company owners and managers. This video was developed to support fresh produce growers as they implement employee training to reduce risks during fruit and vegetable production. It is intended for all farm employees, but especially focused on those employees that work in the field harvesting and packing fresh produce. Employee training is not only important for ensuring the microbial safety of fresh produce, but for meeting buyer food safety requirements, third-party audit requirements, and for being compliant with the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Produce Safety Rule. One of the requirements of the Produce Safety Rule is that those working with fresh produce must receive annual training on food safety practices, so this video was created just for them!
