Food Security Poster

In the past, security in the restaurant industry meant protecting customers and employees from violence or criminal acts. But in the current national context, food security means preventing or eliminating the deliberate contamination of food. The contaminants used are generally one of five types:

  1. Biological
  2. Chemical
  3. Physical
  4. Nuclear
  5. Radioactive

Food Safety vs. Food Security
The terms "food safety" and "food security" do not mean the same thing. Food safety addresses the accidental contamination of food. Food security deals with the deliberate contamination of food with the intent of causing harm or disruption.

Introducing...

Food Security: An Introduction introduces a six-step approach of Threat Evaluation, Assessment, and Management (TEAM) to identify and address food security threats. This booklet is suitable for managers to better understand what needs to be done to address the food security need at the unit level.

The Food Security Poster supplements Food Security: An Introduction by providing awareness to employees on what to look out for to ensure food security in the unit. The poster alerts employees to food security dangers and is available in both English and Spanish.
