Bayerisches Landesamt für Gesundheit und Lebensmittelsicherheit

The Bayerisches Landesamt für Gesundheit und Lebensmittelsicherheit (LGL) is a central authority in the Free State of Bavaria, specializing in the protection of the health and safety of the population. It is a subordinate authority of the Bavarian State Ministry for the Environment and Consumer Protection, the State Ministry for Health, Care and Prevention, and the State Ministry for Family, Labor and Social Affairs.

• Health Protection: The LGL monitors compliance with hygiene and safety standards in food production and healthcare.
• Food Safety: It conducts investigations and controls to ensure that food meets legal requirements.
• Communication and Inquiries: The LGL offers information and support for consumers, associations and companies. However, inquiries regarding legal aspects will not be answered, as private experts should be consulted here[2].

The mission of the LGL is to ensure the health and safety of the population through independent and scientifically sound work. It attaches great importance to neutrality and objectivity in answering inquiries and conducting investigations.

Although specific sustainability goals of the LGL are not explicitly mentioned, it contributes to the long-term safety and health of the population through its work. This also includes the promotion of sustainable practices in food production and healthcare.

The LGL regularly publishes publications and materials that can be accessed via the website. These include forms, applications and scientific reports that are of interest to professionals and interested parties[2].
