1. How much is the compensation for expired food?
1, you can claim compensation ten times the price of expired food.
China's Food Safety Law clearly stipulates that it is forbidden to produce food that does not meet food safety standards, and it is forbidden to sell food that knowingly does not meet food safety standards. Expired food is food that does not meet safety standards. Once sold and eaten, it will cause harm to the human body. Therefore, consumers can demand compensation of ten times the price except the loss from the producer or seller.
2. If personal injury is caused to consumers, you can claim personal injury compensation from the merchants:
(1) If it causes general personal injury to consumers, it may claim compensation for the corresponding medical expenses, nursing expenses during treatment, income reduced due to missed work, etc.
(2) If it causes disability, it may claim compensation for self-help furniture, living allowance, disability compensation and the living expenses necessary for the people it supports;
(3) If the victim dies, he may demand payment of funeral expenses, death compensation, living expenses and other expenses necessary for the dependents of the deceased before his death.
Second, the administrative punishment of expired food
In accordance with the provisions of the Food Safety Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the relevant competent departments shall, according to their respective duties, confiscate the illegal income, the food illegally produced and operated, and the tools, equipment, raw materials and other items used for illegal production and operation; If the value of food illegally produced and operated is less than 10,000 yuan, a fine of more than 2,000 yuan and less than 50,000 yuan shall be imposed; If the value of the goods is more than 10 thousand yuan, a fine of more than five times and less than ten times the value of the goods shall be imposed; If the circumstances are serious, the license shall be revoked.
Article 122 of People's Republic of China (PRC) Food Safety Law violates the provisions of this law by engaging in food production and business activities without obtaining a food production and business license, or engaging in food additive production activities without obtaining a food additive production license, the food and drug supervision and administration department of the people's government at or above the county level shall confiscate the illegal income, food additives and tools, equipment, raw materials and other items used for illegal production and business; If the value of food and food additives illegally produced and operated is less than 1 10,000 yuan, a fine of more than 50,000 yuan110,000 yuan will be imposed; If the value of goods is more than 1 10,000 yuan, a fine of more than 10 and less than 20 times shall be imposed.
Knowing that it is an illegal act stipulated in the preceding paragraph, the food and drug supervision and administration department of the people's government at or above the county level shall order it to stop the illegal act, confiscate its illegal income and impose a fine of not less than 50,000 yuan but not more than 100,000 yuan; Those who harm the legitimate rights and interests of consumers shall be jointly and severally liable with the producers and operators of food and food additives.
Third, how to ensure food safety?
1, purifying the market source
Focus on strictly controlling food crops, vegetables, fruits and drinking water that people need to eat daily, and adjust standardized and innovative planting, production structure and production guarantee system. The food on the market should be composed of large-scale professional growers and groups that meet the quality requirements and are recognized by the state. The grain of manufacturers accounts for the vast majority, and backward and sporadic growers and small factories with insecure quality should be eliminated in time, or no one cares about them and die out. Purifying the source of the market is the key. If this step is done well, buyers can rest assured.
2. Establish a market-level testing system.
That is to say, in large and medium-sized supermarkets and farmers' markets, testing instruments and methods are set up to detect the main quality parameters of related foods at any time, which can be sampled by full-time market inspectors or the people. The state should invest a certain amount of money to carry out research on rapid detection methods for the market to quickly confirm the quality. Such unqualified products are difficult to go on the market, and they dare not go on the market, so as to prevent unqualified products from going on the market.
3. Increase the transparency of the media
Internet, TV stations and newspapers should report food testing results in a planned, targeted and timely manner, commend high-quality qualified products, attract subscribers and benefit from them, expose unqualified products, let them be removed from the shelves or neglected, make them rectify or stop production, and pay attention to them in various aspects and in all directions.
I believe that after reading the above introduction, you should know more or less that expired foods are foods that do not meet safety standards. In addition to claiming damages, consumers can also claim compensation of ten times the price from producers or sellers. The above is about the amount of compensation for expired food, I hope it will help you.
