FSIS Mission
The Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS), is a food safety
regulatory agency within the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)
responsible for ensuring that domestic and imported meat, poultry, and
egg products are safe, wholesome, and accurately labeled.
FSIS employs approximately 9,000 workers who collectively
conduct a broad range of food safety activities to achieve FSIS’
overall vision—that everyone’s food is safe. The Agency’s
employees comprise a frontline workforce assigned duties at
federally regulated establishments, FSIS laboratories, and in-
commerce facilities nationwide as well as technical, administrative,
and support staff.
FSIS is unique as we are our own mission area. Unlike some other
USDA agencies that have multiple agencies within their mission.
Within FSIS, we have 15 program offices that we procure goods and
services .
