Food producers and lawyers for plaintiffs and defendants are looking at food safety and the food industry in a new light. The food industry could face manufacturing delays, greater production scrutiny, renewed recall planning, a potential increase in food borne illness and injury claims and potential increased liability for voluntary actions. Add to these concerns the reactions and speculation brewing over anticipated new administration actions.<\/p>\n<p>Food safety industry and legal experts will examine and discuss these issues from the regulatory and litigation perspectives. There will be individual presentations and panel discussions to discuss experiences with recalls and regulators, and best practices to pro-actively address the concerns of your business or clients.<\/p>\n<p>This event is approved for 1.5 CLE credits.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\">This event is available for on-demand CLE credit until 5\/8\/2027.<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align:
