Meat products such as ground meat and freshly packaged meat are known to be one of the primaryfood sources for foodborne illnesses. While 17 countries internationally allow irradiation treatment to ensure the hy gienic safety of these products, Korea currently has no such regulations. In this study, a survey was performed target ing 1,000 individuals from the general public and 70 employees from the industrial sector about the need to establishdomestic irradiation treatment regulations for meat products and the perception of food irradiation technology. Theresults showed that 78.4% of the general public and 81.4% of industrial employees responded that it is necessary toestablish irradiation treatment regulations for meat products. The main reason for this was that irradiation treatmentcan help prevent food poisoning by ensuring the microbiological safety of the products. Besides, 94% of the generalpublic responded that they would purchase irradiated meat products if the regulations were activated, and 66% of in dustrial employees expressed their intention to use irradiation treatment technology. This response indicates positivepublic acceptance and industrial applicability of food irradiation technology. In addition, this study suggested thatcontinuous research to ensure safety, promotion, and education through various media had to be conducted as thesupplementation for food irradiation technology before its application.
