RSI experience in Food safety

RSI, with its long association with a key agency responsible for food safety, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), exemplifies this commitment. RSI’s work involves the development of the CFIA’s risk assessment and inspection process. This process includes comparative risk modelling, consideration of the potential for food fraud within the regulated industry, the effectiveness of risk controls, as well as concerns for animal welfare. These efforts are critical in ensuring that food products are safe for consumption and meet the highest standards of quality and safety.

Beyond Canadian borders, RSI has worked with both the US FDA and EFSA in Europe. Furthermore, RSI has, over the years, received multiple contracts to work with industry on various aspects of their food safety efforts ranging from development and implementation of internal policies to risk assessments and compliance.
