FSMA’s 10th Anniversary: Reflecting on Our Progress and the Path Forward

FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) https://www.fda.gov/fsma FSMA's 10th Anniversary: Reflecting on Our Progress and the Path Forward January 4, 2021 Ten years ago, on Jan. 4, 2011, the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) was signed into law and Congress' mandate was clear: It's not enough to respond to outbreaks of foodborne illness. We must prevent them from happening in the first place. Because of FSMA, those who grow, produce, pack, hold, import and transport our food are now taking concrete steps every day to reduce the risk of contamination. The result is safer food in this country, whether that food is produced domestically or imported. We are working diligently to ensure that remaining FSMA rules and related guidance documents are finalized and implemented. And we are building on our FSMA achievements through the New Era of Smarter Food Safety initiative to create a more digital, traceable and safer food system. In FDA Voices, Frank Yiannas, FDA's Deputy Commissioner for Food Policy and Response, looks at where we started, the progress that has been made through FSMA, and the work that's ahead.
