Food inspection often results in a lot of paperwork, for example, data entry, scheduling, reporting and manual follow-up. For years information has been gathered using paper and clipboards, with the data being catalogued once returning to the office. It works, but it’s inefficient… Could the introduction of data collection via a mobile device in partnership with automation be the answer? With countless food inspections required per Local Council, could Environmental Health Officers’ jobs be made easier, more transparent with improved control and accountability, all while reducing costs, saving time and improving reporting capabilities? The answer is yes, and it is quite an easy process too.

Since the introduction of smartphones and tablets few years ago, the role of the mobile device has steadily increased from toys and gadgets used by early adopters to every day productivity tools deployed by organisations that aim to improve their work force productivity. Automation has become an important aspect of food safety inspections and many companies are moving to record their food safety inspections results on tablets and smartphones (Mobile devices). Food and HACCP inspection can become simple by using digital methods. Mobile devices are able to deliver information that already exists on paper forms and at the same time improve the safety inspector’s ability to access and utilise the data in the field. Everyone in the food chain, from farmer through consumer, has a responsibility in keeping the food supply safe and comply with general provisions of the Food Standards code, HACCP and ISO 22000.

Whilst there are many examples of organisations, individuals and communities that take fire safety for granted, it’s imperative for all businesses to regard fire safety with the upmost importance. International standards such as ISO 20338 regulate things like the oxygen reduction systems used for fire prevention; specifying the minimum and maximum requirements for various machinery, equipment and operating environments. ISO 20338 will help to specify the design, installation and maintenance of fixed oxygen reduction systems in particular, applying more to those systems that have nitrogen abundance in the air. This can of course apply for business with workplace environments handling particular materials or chemicals, but also for industrial size production plants.
