HACCP and omavalvonta in Finland
In Finland, a restaurant's own-check plan (omavalvonta) is the day-to-day HACCP practice, and the Oiva inspection system publishes how well it is followed. The plan stays yours. What Orbis changes is the record-keeping: the evidence that the checks happened is created as part of the work.
Food safety and waste are the same problem
The chicken found at close, past its use-by, is both a safety risk and money in the bin. Because Orbis tracks lots against the forecast, it can suggest using a lot in tomorrow's special while it is still safe, instead of writing it off.
