我國與各國間食品風險評估運作模式介紹

食品安全隨著貿易自由化已是全球性的議題，食品安全的管理以維護消費者健康為首要目標外，亦要基於風險評估所得之科學性證據結果為基礎，訂定合理且不阻礙貿易發展之法規標準，確保食品貿易能公平地進行。風險評估需以科學、獨立、透明為原則，各國依其法規雖有不同的食品風險評估運作模式，但大致可簡單區分為二類，一類為設立獨立之風險評估機關的組織區隔型，如歐盟及日本；另一類為風險評估及風險管理於同一機關下執行的功能區隔型，如美國及我國，無論何種運作模式，均要確保風險評估執行過程是獨立於風險管理。

As trade liberalization, food safety has become a global issue and its management is considered the first goal for protecting the consumers' interests. To make sure the fair trade in food without barriers, the food regulations should be set up reasonably which are based on the scientific evidence obtained from risk assessment. The principles of risk assessment are science-based, independent and transparent. According to the regulations from many countries, different food risk assessment mechanisms are set, and could be roughly classified into two types. One is an organizational separation type which establishes the independent risk assessment body, such as European and Japan. The other is functional separation type which conducts risk assessment and risk management in the same body, such as United States and Taiwan. Whatever the working mechanism is, it must be sure the procedure of risk assessment is independent from risk management.
