FSIS Security Guidelines for Food Processors

The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has prepared the enclosed, FSIS Security Guidelines for Food Processors, to assist Federal and State inspected plants that produce meat, poultry and egg products in identifying ways to strengthen their biosecurity protection. FSIS recognizes that inspected plants may also be aware of, and are adopting, guidelines from other government and private sector organizations and agencies. However, businesses or plants that do not have access to specialized security-planning advice should find these guidelines particularly useful as they develop and improve their food security plans.
