CIFOR Industry Guidelines for Foodborne Outbreak Response - A training for regulators and industry on implementing in your business and jurisdiction (2h 50m Learning Lab Tabletop/Group Exercise)

The CIFOR Industry Guidelines were developed as voluntary guidance for owners, operators, and managers of retail food establishments ("Industry") to help outline, clarify, and explain Industry's recommended role in a foodborne illness outbreak investigation. The document provides step-by-step approaches to important aspects of outbreak response such as preparation, detection, investigation, control, and follow-up. By using the CIFOR Industry Guidelines and its tools, Industry can take an active and educated role in outbreak response and investigation thereby reducing negative health impact to the public and negative economic impact to their businesses.  In addition, local and State Food Safety Programs can benefit from promoting the use and adoption of these guidelines in their jurisdictions. 
This workshop will go through the guidelines, allowing ample time for discussion and interaction from a diverse audience.
