What is food safety management system?


What is ISO 22000 certification

This standard was first published in September 2005. In 2006 companies in India have begun to implement it. This standard is higher than HACCP, where HACCP and GMP (or in ISO 22000 called PRP - Prerequisite Program) are two of the four key elements in this standard. It means, in ISO 22000 there are automatically HACCP and GMP. Until now more and more food industries are implementing ISO 22000 Certification for food industries. The impression of "international smell" from the words "ISO" makes certain industries more confident when they have ISO 22000 compared to HACCP. This is a good choice for industries that have implemented HACCP to "upgrade" their management systems or for companies that are implementing the system for the first time and want to be trusted by customers and want to tidy up their internal management systems.

Why ISO 22000 certification is required

ISO 22000:2018 Certification is an international standard for the Food Safety Management System. This system can be implemented in organisations engaged in food, agriculture.The main purpose of this system is to provide a special standard for food and beverages produced so as to increase consumer confidence in food and beverages. Food safety management system is an important part as one of the demands of customers who want food safety and its management must be based on ingredients that are good and safe for consumption.
Currently in India, the development in the world of food is very fast and rapid, along with the development of the food industry there are problems that arise as a result of these food and beverage preparations.
In developed countries such as the United States and in Europe have anticipated this problem by implementing the Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Points System, abbreviated as HACCP. For companies that want and intend to sell their products to developed countries, they must have implemented this Food Safety Management System. This method only functions as a risk analysis. To simplify and speed up the process without having to sacrifice quality and other management systems, an ISO 22000:2018 Certification Standard is required.

Benefits of ISO 22000 Certification for food industries

  • Provide and guarantee the safety of products produced by industry
  • It can increase customer satisfaction and trust
  • Able to increase productivity and efficiency of the organisation / company
  • Can improve the quality of workers or human resources
  • Can guarantee a continuous improvement system
  • Can be a medium for factual decision making
  • Able to enhance mutually beneficial relationships with suppliers

Matters that need to be food quality and safety management system include:

1. Policies and Targets, made into a statement of quality and food safety policies covering both elements
2. Management Representative, can be held by one person for both systems
3. Planning, be it resource planning, process planning, system planning, etc., all have considered fulfilling the requirements of the two standards
4. Documentation, only one type of complete documentation should be made that covers and meets the requirements of the two standards, starting from the food quality and safety manuals, SOPs, work instructions, forms, and other supporting documents.
5. Implementation, at all levels must have an understanding that they are implementing only one system, namely the company's internal system that meets the requirements of both standards.
6. Internal and external audits can be combined for both Improvement systems
7. Management review, can be done at one time to discuss the application of quality management and food safety systems

Implementation of the Food Safety Management System in Food Services

The food service industry such as restaurants, catering, cafes, hotels, etc. began to look at the implementation of a food safety management system. Due to the type of industry (with a limited number of people and the number of processes in one kitchen that can be more than a factory), the adoption needs to be done in a way that is simpler than the application in the factory. In contrast to factories which generally have almost never been visited by consumers, the application of the system in food service is often easily seen by consumers directly in their facilities. For this reason, any management system that is implemented needs to involve the consumer / customer point of view in monitoring the system. The use of "customer eyes" to assess the implementation of systems related to service quality and hygiene (food safety) can be an effective way to ensure the system runs well.
