Food Safety Department Fake Warning
Recently, the Department of Food Safety, Ministry of Health discovered a fanpage impersonating the Department, sharing false information about recruiting for a number of job positions, affecting the reputation of the state management agency.
The Food Safety Department affirms that the unit only uses the official information channel on the Department's Electronic Information Page and currently, the Department is not recruiting civil servants.
The images of individuals posted on the fanpage's profile pictures are not civil servants, public employees, or workers working at the Food Safety Department. The Food Safety Department recommends that people be wary of fake fanpages.
