2017 Taiwan Food and Drug Administration Annual Report Chapter 6. Early Warning, Monitoring and Risk Management
Section 3. Crisis Management Mechanism
Current Status
Courses were held in 2016 to help TFDA staff members improve their familiarity
with risk management and crisis management concepts to respond to and handle
emergencies. Public opinions and information were reviewed on a daily basis. Regular
post-marketing surveillance was also conducted to maintain the safety of goods sold on
the market for the general public. Corresponding response mechanisms to quickly handle
and contain the issue are also in place in case of actual emergencies. Once the incident is
over, TFDA will formulate improvements to improve crisis handling capabilities.
