EQ Quality Training: Building Trust Through Food Safety, Hygiene and International Quality Standards
In the food industry, cleanliness is not defined by what the eye can see. Consumers want assurance, regulators demand evidence, and businesses need systems they can rely on.
This is where EQ Quality Training PLT comes in by helping organisations turn food safety, hygiene and quality into structured, measurable and trusted practices.
Why “Clean” Is Not Enough
Food safety operates as a system, not a single action. A reliable food handling framework looks at four essential elements:
.
When one area is neglected, risks increase. EQ Quality Training PLT trains organisations to build hygiene into everyday operations, creating habits that last beyond inspections.
Who is EQ Quality Training PLT?
EQ stands for Environmental Quality, reflecting the company’s belief that food safety, workplace safety and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.
Accredited by the Ministry of Health Malaysia, EQ Quality Training PLT provides training, ISO management consultancy and pre-audit support for businesses seeking compliance, certification and operational excellence.
Core Training Focus Areas
1. Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)
GMP ensures food is consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards. Proper practices help prevent contamination and processing errors that can compromise food safety. They also ensure consistent product quality from batch to batch, meeting regulatory standards set by the authorities. With GMP knowledge, businesses gain better control over factories, kitchens or production lines.
2. Good Hygiene Practice (GHP)
GHP focuses on personal hygiene, cleanliness of workspaces, equipment and food-contact surfaces. Poor hygiene remains one of the leading causes of foodborne illness, making strict hygiene practices essential in any food-related environment. Consistent training helps food handlers develop safe, responsible habits in their daily work, while ensuring businesses are better prepared for inspections and regulatory checks.
3. Quality Assurance and Food Safety Systems
Food production involves multiple control points. Training covers:
.
These systems help businesses detect issues early, reducing recalls, waste and reputational risk.
