USPOULTRY hosted its inaugural Public Health Information System (PHIS) Workshop on April 17, 2024. Developed in partnership with the Food Safety Advisory Committee, the workshop assisted attendees with navigating the PHIS interface and appropriately responding to U.S. Department of Agriculture noncompliance records. Corporate and plant personnel from the broiler and duck industry were represented at the meeting, as PHIS allows for various scopes of access.
The PHIS site contains information about processing facilities that can be particularly useful in supporting an overall food safety program. However, navigating the interface, downloading needed data and interacting with noncompliance records (NRs) and memorandum of interviews (MOIs) takes time. Attendees learned how to ensure that the information contained in PHIS is accurate and how to assign responsibilities and track public health regulations. The reporting capabilities of PHIS were also explored to become proficient in generating reports that can inform daily and strategic goals.
