To help ensure this Hytek examines all potential hazards in its work places and does everything possible to reduce or eliminate risks to our employees. We also enforce strict safety policies that are fully compliant with the Manitoba Workplace Health and Safety Act.
Employees are encouraged to bring forth any workplace health and safety concerns.

Additionally, all employees benefit from various safety courses provided by the company.
Hytek's Ongoing Commitment to Consumer Safety
Consumers place their trust in the quality, nutritional value and safety of our products. Hytek never takes this trust for granted.

HACCP is an internationally recognized food safety program. In addition, Hytek Ltd. is fully compliant with all levels of the Canadian Pork Council's Canadian Quality Assurance (CQA) program. The CQA program is based on the HACCP system and has been recognized by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency as an approved method of maintaining food safety at every level of pork production.
