SIMPLE TIPS
TO HELP
REDUCE
THE RISK
OF FOOD
POISONING
AT WORK
By Lydia Buchtmann, Food Safety Information Council
It’s happened
to all of us at work: we open
the office fridge to discover the
remnants of last week’s packed
lunches plus the aroma of that
expired carton of milk.
We urge workers and employers to
avoid food poisoning by taking care
of that much-neglected workplace
kitchen.
EVERY YEAR, THERE IS
A ONE IN FIVE CHANCE
OF YOU GETTING
FOOD POISONING IN
AUSTRALIA, AND WE
KNOW THAT CASES OF
GASTRO CAN SPREAD
QUICKLY THROUGHOUT
A WORKPLACE ONCE
PEOPLE GET SICK.
