Food incidents, product withdrawals and recalls
Product withdrawals and recalls
As a result of a food incident, a food product may have to be withdrawn or recalled.
A withdrawal is when unsafe food is removed from the supply chain before it has reached consumers.
A recall is when unsafe food is removed from the supply chain and consumers are advised to take appropriate action, for example to return or dispose of the unsafe food.

What is a food recall?
A food recall is used to remove from sale a food that poses an immediate risk to public health and safety. Food recalls are usually initiated by the manufacturer, distributor or importer and must be reported to state and commonwealth government authorities
What is a withdrawal?
A withdrawal is action taken to remove a food product from sale even if there is no public health and safety issue. This is usually done for two reasons:
1. the product has a quality defect or has a labelling irregularity that is not a public health risk.
2. as a precaution, pending further investigation of a potential public health risk. If a public
health risk is established, then the food must be recalled. Withdrawals do not need to be notified to authorities.
