Introduction
Food safety refers to the discipline which is used in
preparing or handling the food. It is used for preventing the
diseases which are caused by the contaminated food. Food
and safety management is the process of handling the food
so that it won't get contaminated or spoiled.

Control required to prevent physical and chemical
contamination of food
Food contamination is the process in which harmful and
unhygienic chemical substances enters in the food during the
cooking or delivery time. These substances causes the illness
in the human beings who consumes the contaminated food.

Continue..
These substances are divided into physical or chemical substances.
These are discussed below:
• Contamination: This substances includes the hair, dust, plants
stalks etc. which are physically present near the food while
preparation.
For example the nails, hairs and the skin of chef who is
preparing the food can highly impact the body of consumers and
make them ill.

Continue..
Prevention
• From building: The staff and chef needs to ensure that
there is not any opening in the building through which
the pests can enter.
• From the food handler: The food handler needs to cover
their hair, skin for eliminating the contamination in the
food.

Continue..
Chemical contamination: This contamination
contains the residues of pesticides of agro chemicals, drugs
etc. This can also be done through environment and various
chemical substances present in kitchen. This can
contaminate the food which can cause the consumers illness.

Prevention
• Clear labels: The staff of Holiday Inn needs to label the
chemical substance along with the expiry date and
guidelines to use so that consumer won't contaminate
their food.
• Drain seals: The management of the hotel needs to
ensure that the drainage system are sealed properly.

Characteristics of food poisoning and food
borne infections
There are two different terms i.e. food poisoning and food
borne illness which are used interchangeably. Management
of Holiday Inn should state the benefits of eating healthy
food and avoiding the contamination in food.

Continue..
The disease and infection in food are caused by the micro
organisms such as germs, bacteria etc. The contaminated
food from such microorganism, when consumed can leads
to food poisoning in the human body.

Continue..
Several food borne infections along with the characteristics
are discussed below:
• Campylobacteriosis
• Cryptosporidiosis

Continue…
Food poisoning: It is the process of infection in
human body due to consuming contaminated food which
turns the food unhealthy. This can be treated using several
methods at home and does not need any specific treatment.
The contaminated person should eat light and little food
during the treatment.

Comparison of Food poisoning and Food
borne infection
Basis Food borne disease Food poisoning
Similarities These diseases are cause
during the preparation of
food. These can effect the
individual's health when the
cooked food is
contaminated.
This is also caused during
the food preparation or
cooking which can leads to
pain in stomach due to the
consumption of
contaminated food.
Dissimilarities These diseases can be
caused due to the
consumption of
contaminated food which
also make the human body
contaminated.
Whereas food poisoning can
be termed as the subset of
food borne infection in
which the person suffers due
to consuming poisonous
food or substances.

Control measures of food borne illness
Food borne illness is caused because of consuming food
which contains virus, germs, bacteria etc. This illness is
mainly cause due to gastrointestinal tract caused by the
contaminated food. This illness can occur suddenly which
can last for months or weeks. This disease is treated
accordingly and does not have any particular treatment.

Continue..
There are various food borne illnesses which can impact the
consumers due to the food provided by the Holiday Inn
hotel as discussed below along with the control measures:
• Botulism: This disease causes blurred eye sight,
diarrhoea, vomiting etc. in the human body after the food
is consumed.

Continue…
Escherichia coli infection: This can be prevented
through avoiding the heavy meals, consuming the sealed
packed waters and packing the food items hygienically. This
disease can cause vomiting, abdominal cramps etc.

Conclusion
It has been concluded from this presentation that Food borne
diseases and infections are unhealthy and harmful for the
human body. These are caused by the contaminated food,
due to which the body of consumer may get affected in
terms of food poisoning and illness.
