Malicious
or Accidental Product Contamination
Malicious or accidental
product contamination is a threat to any company that manufactures
and sells to the consumer. It predominates in the food industry
but it also touches other industry products. It can have a
devastating effect on companies and decisions have to be made
at various stages as to how to deal with the issue, not least
in determining the true position, communication and publicity
and if necessary dialogue with the law enforcement agencies.
Alecto can assist companies through
such events by introducing a continuing, professional and
objective structure to evolving developments and allowing
management the time to focus on the actual decisions necessary
and remain on a progressive course. Alecto personnel are
very well experienced in carrying out this role, maintaining
direction to the issue while identifying risks of specific
decisions to different situations as they occur.
Alecto gives training presentations
and seminars to senior personnel at individual companies
in relation to this type of event to enable strategies and
structures to be reviewed and updated in a way that is specific
to the company.
