From "inspection" to "inspection", Shenzhen's new food safety thinking behind the change of one word

The food safety project is a livelihood project that guarantees the physical and mental health of the people
.

The Shenzhen Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government proposed to highlight scientific and technological leadership, reform and innovation, implement the same responsibilities of the party and government, stimulate the participation of all people, promote the creation of high standards and strict requirements, comprehensively improve the level of food safety assurance and comprehensive governance capabilities, and create a food safe city that is satisfied by the public , To create a national food safety demonstration city, and fully carry out the pilot work of "Catering Industry Inspection and Publicity", which not only broadens the scope of food sampling inspection, but also introduces all citizens and third-party institutions into the food safety supervision system, and integrates the past single items and one-way" "Inspection" has become an all-round, full-coverage, and continuous "inspection".

Three All Three Nets: Innovative Food Safety Supervision Methods

At present, our country is in a new period of shifting from guaranteeing food supply to guaranteeing food safety
.

Shenzhen pioneered the food safety inspection pilot, innovating in institutional mechanisms, methods and methods, and improving the governance system

It is reported that the pilot inspection work in Shenzhen mainly includes four aspects: First, conduct full-coverage food safety inspections of catering service units, conduct full-coverage food safety inspections in the pilot area, supervise catering service units to publicize inspection results, and follow up and deal with them in accordance with the law.

.

Second, carry out rapid food safety inspections for key products.

Through the pilot inspection of catering service units, the goal of achieving full coverage of catering service unit supervision, mastering the basic food safety status of catering services in the jurisdiction, and accumulating experience for the promotion of the inspection system in the city, comprehensively build an "inspection network", "detection network" and "law enforcement network" "Sanzhang.
com, exploring a new mode of joint supervision of third-party inspection and supervision and law enforcement by the food safety supervision department
.

In the early stage, Shenzhen’s pilot catering service unit inspections will select a street in each district, and all catering service units in the street’s jurisdiction will be inspected.
In accordance with the standards and requirements of the Shenzhen Food and Drug Administration, full coverage and coverage will be implemented.
, The whole chain of inspections, while cooperating with food safety quick inspection work, establish a food safety information bulletin board for catering service units, and follow up on violations of laws and regulations
.

For example, during the trial period in Shekou Street, Nanshan District carried out an orderly and planned implementation of food safety inspections
.

First of all, a grid inspection team will be formed to cover 694 catering service units, grasp the basic food safety status of catering services and prominent food safety issues in the jurisdiction, and provide information support for the targeted and precise development of the food safety "inspection network"

In order to better guide public opinion and protect citizens' rights and interests, the inspection results will also be announced to the citizens in a timely manner to meet citizens' demands for knowledge, participation, and supervision, enhance citizens' trust in food safety regulatory agencies, and mobilize and give play to citizens' enthusiasm , Strengthen the social force of food safety supervision, and form a stronger restraint on food safety in food production, processing, marketing and other links
.

Social Governance: All People Participate in Food Safety

Full-scale, full-coverage, and full-chain inspections mean that every company in the market needs to conduct random inspections of one to three batches
.

However, the wide variety of food and the huge number of market players require huge investment in manpower and material resources

At present, Shenzhen’s Longhua, Guangming, Bao’an and other districts have begun to introduce third-party social forces to participate in food safety and social co-governance, and formulate targeted implementation plans based on the actual conditions of each district
.

Take Bao'an District as an example, the district finance allocated special funds to increase 135 full-time food supervisors, equip each street with food inspection trucks, and incorporate food safety content into the district’s grid-based smart management platform, greatly improving inspections and finding problems , The efficiency of problem solving.

In fact, the use of third-party social forces to strengthen food safety management is already a mature mechanism in developed countries such as the United States and Europe.
By learning from overseas experience, it can improve the level of food safety supervision in Shenzhen
.

Li Zhong, deputy director of the Shenzhen Food and Drug Administration, pointed out that Shenzhen has launched a food safety “inspection” mechanism to explore a brand-new supervision model, taking social governance as the starting point, and mobilizing the forces of the whole society to participate in food safety management.

　　Regarding the difference between inspections and inspections, Li Zhong pointed out that in the previous actual supervision work, due to the serious mismatch between the large number of market operators and the limited number of market supervisors, a large number of supervisory vacancies were created and many supervisory blind spots were formed
.

Inspection is the method of purchasing services by the government, hiring professionals from third-party organizations in the society, and in accordance with the actual number of operating entities, fully equipped with inspection personnel, which can achieve full coverage and no dead ends, just like regular elevator maintenance.

　　Li Zhong vividly said: "Inspection is to provide training and guidance to catering service units and urge rectification and improvement.
It is like conducting a'physical examination' of an enterprise to help the enterprise find problems, and then provide professional rectification opinions, which are discovered during the inspection process.
As long as the problem is not intended to violate the law, it is necessary to provide help and services; and the inspection is like an “examination” of the enterprise, checking the food safety quantification checklist of the catering service unit, checking item by item, focusing on finding the problem and making administrative enforcement decisions.
Have legal effect
.
"

　　Inspections are preliminary screening, and inspections are targeted and precise law enforcement
.
During the inspection process, some obvious violations can be found.
Through reminders, they can be quickly resolved, shortcomings can be filled, and loopholes can be plugged.
This method is more humane, easy to get the support and cooperation of the business owner, and reduce the burden on the enterprise
.
Of course, during the inspection process, if serious violations of laws and regulations are found, or the operator deliberately avoids the inspection and fails to cooperate, it needs to be reported to the relevant law enforcement personnel, and at the same time, the inspection agency will be arranged to conduct random inspections, so that a limited number of law enforcement personnel can be used for the target.
Directional and precise law enforcement improves administrative efficiency
.

　　Analysts pointed out that only the establishment of a social co-governance pattern of government supervision, departmental coordination, industry self-discipline, enterprise responsibility, expert support, public participation, and media supervision, can social co-governance be a new principle and new concept in food safety governance.
, In order to better solve the food safety problem fundamentally
.
This also means that government departments at all levels must attach great importance to the implementation of the city’s efforts, take the grassroots front line as the main battlefield for food safety, strengthen food safety management in accordance with the law, strengthen basic work at the grassroots level, and build a team of professional inspectors.
Improve the quality and safety of the catering industry, and realize the grid and integration of food safety supervision and law enforcement and comprehensive management
.

　　In addition to all-round inspections, there are also training upgrades for practitioners
.
Shenzhen food safety is faced with the problems of a large number of foreign foods, a large number of diners, and a large number of regulatory dead ends.
The catering units have high mobility of employees and relatively poor food safety expertise.
Various districts in Shenzhen have carried out a lot of innovations in food safety supervision and complementing their shortcomings.
Exploration and achieved good results
.
The Shenzhen Food and Drug Administration and the Food Safety Express Information Technology (Shenzhen) Co.
, Ltd.
organized and developed the food safety regulations knowledge online platform "Food Safety Express" APP online class, based on the practitioners to carry out comprehensive professional knowledge training according to their positions
.

　　One dipper and one drink are related to life and health, and are also the basic requirements for people's sense of security, happiness, and sense of acquisition
.
Shenzhen's food safety supervision model innovation, through comprehensive deployment to promote the city's "one street, one quick inspection car, one quick inspection room" and "catering industry inspection publicity" two tasks, in order to achieve a new model of social governance
.
With the official launch of Shenzhen's food safety inspection network, inspection network and law enforcement network, the three networks have been officially launched, focusing on solving the system and mechanism issues that restrict food safety, and providing a solid guarantee for food safety in Shenzhen to accelerate the construction of a modern socialist city
