Which FSIS guideline mentions mail-handling security and training handlers to recognize suspect packages?

• A. Mail-handling security: train handlers to recognize suspect packages.
• B. Employee wellness programs.
• C. Metal detector use at all ports.
• D. Vendor supplier accreditation.

Answer: (A)

The concept tested is how FSIS addresses security around mail entering facilities and the need to prepare staff to spot and properly respond to suspicious packages. Training handlers to recognize suspect mail is a targeted preventive measure that helps prevent disruption or harm by ensuring staff know to identify unusual items and follow the established reporting and response procedures. This focus on mail security and staff training is what makes this guideline the correct choice.

The other options don’t fit because they address different areas: employee wellness programs are about worker health and benefits; metal detector use at all ports is a broad security measure not specifically tied to mail handling; and vendor supplier accreditation concerns supplier qualification rather than mail security or incident response.
