Hygiene Passport
The Finnish Hygiene Passport for the food industry was developed to promote food safety

Those who work in the food industry must know how to handle foodstuffs safely and hygienically. An employee must have a hygiene passport if they:
- work on food premises and
- handle unpackaged perishable foods.
