ISO 22000 – FOOD SAFETY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
What is ISO 22000 – Food Safety Management System?
ISO 22000 is an internationally recognised standard designed to systematically ensure food safety at every link of the supply chain, including inter-related organisations such as producers of equipment, packaging material, cleaning agents, additives and ingredients. The standard incorporates the principles of HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) with prerequisite programmes (PRPs), and other critical components of a management system to create a harmonised food safety management standard.
