Participating in the Activities of the Working Group

The President's Food Safety Working Group (FSWG) is interested in hearing from a broad range of stakeholders in a variety of ways about their ideas for improving the food safety system. In consultation with our partners on Capitol Hill, the working group is working on a set of principles and guidelines for improving food safety.

Help Us Build on the Foundation of these Five Principles:

1. Rapidly Respond to Outbreaks & Facilitate Recovery (PDF)
2. Expand Risk-Based Inspection & Enforcement (PDF)
3. Focus on Prevention (PDF)
4. Target Resources Effectively (PDF)
5. Strengthen Surveillance & Risk Analysis (PDF)
