Management of food safety has made major progress in the last three decades. Today, managers of food businesses have a choice of systems and technological tools to meet food safety. However, the human factor and its role in the management of food safety has not always been explicitly addressed; yet, none of the measures and tools recommended for ensuring food safety will be effective without a qualified and motivated staff. In turn, this relies on the quality of management and the management commitment to food safety. The text outlines the commitment expected from the top management of food businesses for assuring safety of food products and the importance of effective people management for food safety.
