Food Safety Officer Kya Hai?
Food Safety Officer (FSO) ek government enforcement officer hota hai jo Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 (FSS Act) ke tahat kaam karta hai — ye wahi framework hai jise Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) regulate karti hai. Haryana me FSO Food and Drugs Administration Department ke under appointed hota hai.
FSO ka kaam khaane-peene ki cheezon ki safety aur quality ensure karna hota hai — food businesses ka inspection, food samples ka collection aur testing, license aur registration ki checking, aur safety norms todne walon ke khilaf legal action lena. Matlab ye ek aisa Group-B post hai jisme field work bhi hai aur legal/enforcement responsibility bhi — aur appointment ke baad Food Authority ki prescribed training successfully complete karne par hi candidate ko officially FSO notify kiya jata hai.
