safetrak 22
Since its inception, the safetrak research has been conducted face-to-face, in-home among a nationally representative sample of adults across the island of Ireland. Due to restrictions in place to prevent the spread of COVID-19, it was not possible to proceed with this methodology in 2020. Therefore, the 2020 safetrak research was undertaken using a telephone methodology.
The research was conducted between mid November 2020 – mid December 2020 and highlighted key findings in relation to food safety concerns, healthy eating, barriers to healthy eating, people's views about their weight, handwashing and the use of hand sanitisers, vegetarian meat alternatives, portion sizes, antimicrobial resistance, convenience meals, online grocery shopping, and takeaway meals.
