Excerpt
Summary: In Denmark, the concept of risk analysis has been used in the control of Campylobacter in chickens. The risk management procedure was initiated by a risk profile on Campylobacter, which was elaborated in cooperation with risk managers, risk assessors, and stakeholders representing both the consumers and the industry. Following the preparation of the riskprofile the risk managers decided to order a formal risk assessment. The responsibility for the risk assessment was placed in the research institute under the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration, and the work was closely followed by the stakeholders. The results were communicated to the risk managers, who subsequently initiated the process identifying possible management options and their efficiency in reducing the number of human Campylobacter cases. This process was carried out in close collaboration with the Consumer Board, the Danish Veterinary Laboratory, the Danish Zoonosis Centre, the broiler industry and the trade organisation. At present (January 2002), the management part of the process is not yet concluded. Throughout the risk analysis procedure there has been a good and intimate collaboration between risk managers, risk assessors, and involved stakeholders. The procedure has been a very successful and instructive process for all the parts involved.
