HACCP and ISO 22000


Book Description

Food Safety is an increasingly important issue. Numerous foodcrises have occurred internationally in recent years (the use ofthe dye Sudan Red I; the presence of acrylamide in various friedand baked foods; mislabelled or unlabelled genetically modifiedfoods; and the outbreak of variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease)originating in both primary agricultural production and in the foodmanufacturing industries. Public concern at these and other eventshas led government agencies to implement a variety of legislativeactions covering many aspects of the food chain. This book presents and compares the HACCP and ISO 22000:2005food safety management systems. These systems were introduced toimprove and build upon existing systems in an attempt to addressthe kinds of failures which can lead to food crises. Numerouspractical examples illustrating the application of ISO 22000 to themanufacture of food products of animal origin are presented in thisextensively-referenced volume. After an opening chapter whichintroduces ISO 22000 and compares it with the well-establishedHACCP food safety management system, a summary of internationallegislation relating to safety in foods of animal origin ispresented. The main part of the book is divided into chapters whichare devoted to the principle groups of animal-derived foodproducts: dairy, meat, poultry, eggs and seafood. Chapters are alsoincluded on catering and likely future directions. The book is aimed at food industry managers and consultants;government officials responsible for food safety monitoring;researchers and advanced students interested in food safety.

ISO 22000


Book Description

ISO 22000:2018 first revision has integrated latest developments in food safety domain which lack for last 13 years while eliminating many complexities in ISO 22000:2005 version. The new version has adapted the common platform of the ISO which is called Annex SL to reduce the complexities of merging several ISO standards in a single production system. However, improvements to the standard has created additional works for the quality assurance personnel operating in the food industry. The new changes has proposed major differences to the existing ISO 22000 FSMS and the way of presenting documented information for the propose of system compliances; hence, following ISO 22000:2018 generic model has tried to address them in a systematic approach while reducing the number of documents and systems inside a production facility. The ISO 22000:2018 generic model was developed based on an orthodox black tea manufacturing facility which can be used as an externally developed FSMS while adapting to any specific facility with minimum changes. The objective of the book is to explain the development process of the new version of the standard through a practical example which also can be directly converted into an ISO 22000:2018 FSMS in real time. This book is also intended to help food safety and quality assurance professionals, tea industry, food safety/quality domain students, workers and interested parties. Nonetheless, generic model also can be used as a primary document by students, QA personnel, consultants, or any interested parties to develop a paper based ISO 22000:2018 FSMS for other respective food items where user need to conduct a complete hazard analysis and customization of the system.




Integrated Management Systems


Book Description

Updated to the latest standard changes including ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and OHSAS 18001:2016 Includes guidance on integrating Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Organizations today are implementing stand-alone systems for their Quality Management Systems (ISO 9001, ISO/TS 16949, or AS 9100), Environmental Management System (ISO 14001), Occupational Health & Safety (ISO 18001), and Food Safety Management Systems (FSSC 22000). Stand-alone systems refer to the use of isolated document management structures resulting in the duplication of processes within one site for each of the management standards—QMS, EMS, OHSAS, and FSMS. In other words, the stand-alone systems duplicate training processes, document control, and internal audit processes for each standard within the company. While the confusion and lack of efficiency resulting from this decision may not be readily apparent to the uninitiated, this book will show the reader that there is a tremendous loss of value associated with stand-alone management systems within an organization. This book expands the understanding of an integrated management system (IMS) globally. It not only saves money, but more importantly it contributes to the maintenance and efficiency of business processes and conformance standards such as ISO 9001, AS9100, ISO/TS 16949, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, FSSC 22000, or other GFSI Standards.

Understanding Food Safety Management Systems


Book Description

Having the core elements of a Management System integrated with the HACCP methodology, provides the organizations in the food supply chain a suitable way to demonstrate their products are safe for use or consumption. This book is not intended as a step-by-step guide, which is really not useful in management system. This book can be likened to those 3D computer–generated images where you must divert your eyes for a moment to concentrate on the larger image. First, it may be difficult to comprehend, but once your brain 'absorbs the image'; the text becomes understandable and very logical.
