ISO 22000-1:2018

Food Safety Quality Management System

ISO 22000-1:2018 can be used by any organisation, regardless of size or position in the food industry’s chain of operations. This standard is designed to allow all types of organisations to implement a food safety management system. These range from food processors, transport, storage operators, food manufacturers, subcontractors to retail and foodservice outlets.

ISO 22000-1:2018 is an international standard that sets out the requirements for a food safety management system (FSMS). It enables any organisation in the food industry to demonstrate its ability to control food safety hazards and to ensure that food is safe.

Are you looking to:
  • Increase operational performance?
  • Remove barriers and risks for growth?
  • Increase customer base and focus?
  • Improve Employee engagement?
  • Include a culture of evidence-based decision making?
  • Move into new markets?
  • Win new contracts?
  • Improve top and bottom lines?

The consequences of unsafe food can be serious. ISO’s food safety management standards help organisations identify and control food safety hazards. As many of today's food products repeatedly cross national boundaries, International Standards are needed to ensure the safety of the global food supply chain.

WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?

Top management are to determine their objectives and strategic plan for the business. It is essential that your team are committed to implementing an effective FSMS as everyone will be pivotal to success. With your implementation team, and support from Clear Quality, you will create a quality manual in line with your business objectives. Documented procedures and records required will be created to control an effective quality management system bespoke to your scope of services:

  • A documented system will be created to control approval, distribution, revision, and storage. These should be easy to operate and follow, yet sufficient to meet the requirements of the ISO 22000-1:2018 standards.
  • You will demonstrate a clear process and set of procedures to ensure compliance is consistent.
  • FSMS Objectives and targets will be documented and consistent with the business strategic direction, including continual improvement and risk-based thinking.
  • Relevant documentation should be made easily available and useable in either print or electronic version and communicated throughout your business.
  • Throughout the process, internal audits will take place to confirm process effectiveness and compliance to the international standards.
  • Continual improvement of the effectiveness of the quality management system must be followed on a continuous basis to confirm suitability.
