ISO 22000
Food Safety Management System
ISO 22000 specifies the requirements for a food safety management system that an organization must fulfil to demonstrate its ability to consistently produce food products which are safe for their end consumers. ISO 22000 integrates the principles of the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) system by means of auditable requirements that it combines the HACCP plan with prerequisite programmes. ISO 22000 requires that all hazards that may be reasonably expected to occur in the food chain, including hazards that may be associated with the type of process and facilities used, are identified and assessed. Therefore, it provides the means to determine the strategy to be used to ensure hazard control by combining the prerequisite programmes and the HACCP plan.
Benefits of ISO 22000 Standard
- Increase awareness of food safety hazards.
- Proper documentation and record keeping and enhance internal and external communication.
- Demonstrate organisation’s commitment to food safety thus boosting confidence in stakeholders.
