Abstract:
To construct an evaluation indicator system on food safety management capacity for food production enterprises by Delphi method, and to provide a scientific theoretical framework for food safety management capacity for food enterprises.
Methods: A framework for the evaluation system on food safety management capabilities was established and experts in relevant fields were invited to conduct 2 rounds of expert consultation. Indicators were selected and determined based on expert opinions and statistical analysis results. The hierarchical model was constructed by the analytic hierarchy process to determine the weight coefficients of each indicator.
Results: The positive coefficients of the two rounds of expert consultation were 84% and 100%, and the coefficient of experts' authority was 0.826. The coordination coefficients of the indicators in the first round of consultation were 0.439, 0.323 and 0.324, and they were 0.607, 0.351, and 0.368 in the second round, respectively, with statistically significant differences (P<0.001). The evaluation index system of food safety management capacity for food production enterprises was established after the two rounds of expert consultation, and the system consisted of 5 indicators for the first level, 18 indicators for the second level and 32 indicators for the third level, with corresponding weights.
Conclusion: The enthusiasm, authority and concordance of experts during this consultation are good, and the selected indicators are reasonable and comprehensive, which can provide a basis for the evaluation of food safety management capabilities for food enterprises.
