Meat control statistic

All animals that are to be slaughtered in an approved slaughterhouse must be examined before slaughter by an official enforcement person (ante-mortem inspection). After slaughter, the designated official persons also carry out a meat inspection. The results of the examinations regarding fitness for consumption are recorded in a meat control database (Fleko). Based on the standardized recording of findings from the ante-mortem inspection, reasons for unfitness for consumption, and partial confiscations, improved statements on food safety, animal health, and animal welfare are possible. The meat control data is evaluated annually for the meat control statistics, and the results are published on the dashboard of the FSVO. https://www.dashboard.blv.admin.ch/nutrition/food-safety/meat-inspection-statistics
