Food Safety Management System
ISO 22000 ensures integrity of food supply chain by minimizing the food-borne hazards throughout the food supply chain by ensuring that there are no unsafe conditions. Food safety is related to the presence of and levels of food-borne hazards in food at the point of consumption. As food safety hazards may be introduced at any stage of the food chain, adequate control throughout the food chain is essential. Thus, food safety is a joint responsibility of all parties participating in the food chain
Failures in food supply can cause human suffering, death, poor reputation, violations, poor nutrition, poor quality products and decreased profits. ISO 22000 for food safety management systems is intended to provide food safety and security. ISO 22000 can be applied on its own or in combination with other management system standards such as ISO 9001:2015
