To address the widespread and growing concern of contaminated food causing serious injury and death to individuals throughout the U.S., Congress passes a law which provides that anyone intentionally distributing contaminated food is subject to criminal prosecution, civil fines, or both. Congress has provided a safe-harbor provision that any company with a corporate food safety compliance policy approved by the FDA may avoid criminal prosecution, but not civil fines. This policy requires a company to report any contamination to the FDA so it can be proactive in monitoring any health risks. (Note: A safe harbor provision is either a provision included in a law or a rule passed by an administrative agency which states that if an individual or company complies with the law or rule, criminal liability may be avoided if the law is violated).
