Decoding FSMA & Sanitary Transport:
Learn With Lindsay!
FSMA SANITARY RULE REQUIREMENT:
> The Sanitary Transport Rule is now being enforced, what now?
RESPONSE FROM LINDSAY:
> Enforcement of Sanitary Transport rule came into effect April 6. Now that we are in the enforcement period of the sanitary transport rule, it is even more critical that you ensure your company meets the requirements. It is our understanding that the FDA, working with other government departments, will be doing road-checks, load inspections, facility inspections, recalls, warning letters and more. The result of not meeting requirements could be warning letters, fines, mandatory recalls, prosecution and more.
Aside from the potential fines and prosecution for not being compliant, you could be putting your company at risk of losing contracts. We’ve heard from several of our clients that their shippers are requiring them to be FSMA compliant and provide documented proof before they are allowed to pick up or drop off any loads.
Iron Apple provides all of the necessary items for your company to become compliant with FSMA and Sanitary Transport requirements. Many of our customers are using their compliance status to gain new business!
