Physical Chemical and Biological Hazards

This document summarizes physical, chemical, and biological hazards at different stages of the food chain. Physical hazards include things like glass, metal, and bones from transportation, processing and preparation. Chemical hazards can be cleaning chemicals, pest control chemicals, and fuel residues. Biological hazards are primarily foodborne pathogens from contaminated foods or food handlers that can cause illness, including Salmonella, Staphylococcus, Bacillus Cereus, and Clostridium Perfringens bacteria.
