N2 - A feasibility study on risk analysis of salmonella in pork, focusing on individual and organisational factors, has been conducted. The study addressed the pork production chain including the primary production of pigs, the transportation and the slaughter process in Denmark. The analysis was based on a functional modelling approach carried out in an interdisciplinary context involving veterinarian scientists, food safety specialists and scientists with experiences in the field of industrial safety. It was found important to establish a common understanding of food safety problems, with a goal of finding means to improve the possibilities for interdisciplinar discussions among all stakeholders.
