Abstract

This research uses survey data from reality in seven provinces across the country to assess whether factors such as the content of food safety control, obstacles or perceptions of the people affect the level of food safety. This study results show that the control contenthas a positive relationship with the level of food safety. However, the obstaclesfrom people when choosing food do not have any positive or negative impact on the level of food safety. The ecommendation from the article is that managers may increase providing information and knowledge about food to people, which will make food safer.
