Boosting your resilience to Food Fraud Crime

About this Event

Event overview:

We are thrilled to be partnering with Food Standards Agency’s National Food Fraud Crime Unit (NFCU) to help you understand key process steps and communication channels required during a food fraud incident.

This workshop will give an understanding of the relevant internal and external stakeholders during an incident, provide a safe space for you to practice your response to potential food crimes and fraud-related challenges, whilst learning the importance of fraud prevention.

Objectives:

• To increase resilience to fraud by working through a live scenario of an incident,

giving examples of good practice and things to avoid.

• To gain a greater understanding of the National Food Crime Unit (NFCU) during a

food fraud incident and the role as a single point of contact.

• To recognise the different types of information required as part of a food crime

investigation and how to identify them.

• To understand enforcement proportionality in relation to food crime.

• To identify the relevant internal and external stakeholders during a developing

food crime investigation, and how they will mitigate risks.

• To identify obstacles to dealing with food crime incidents, including time

constraints in relation to securing evidence.
