Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This thesis is an investigation of. This body of work introduces five capability areas that food manufacturers should be aware of and willing to be measured against in order to understand strengths and weaknesses in their food safety culture. The capability areas are based on theories of organizational culture, food science, and social cognitive science. The research suggests measures to quantify, evaluate, and predict performance within each capability area using a food safety maturity scale. The capability areas and maturity measures were tested in a Canadian food manufacturing company with input to content and interpretation of results from leading food safety practitioners in the U.S., Canada, and UK. To measure the strength of the food safety culture in the test company two measurements were taken: strength against performance standards and strength against a behaviour-based maturity model. The test showed consistency between the two measures for eight individual plants.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
