There are many prescriptive requirements that apply to Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) recognised food safety standard and retailer standards that exceed regulatory expectations. It is important to know what the regulations are and what your customer requirements are and how you will meet them.

The focus of this course is to understand the HACCP requirements of the major food safety standards like BRC, SQF & FSSC 22000, which often have more requirements than just those of the regulations. In this course we will examine relevant FSMA clauses, but also expand on them to provide a wider framework for understanding all requirements that are expected. This self-paced HACCP course specifically designed for the food processing industry. It includes case studies of significant food borne illness and incidents such as the “Jack in the Box” case and listeria in hot dogs. This course will refresh your knowledge and satisfy all standard requirements.

This course comes with numerous downloadable HACCP documents including worked HACCP Plan example for a cold smoked salmon process, copy of Codex HACCP, articles and scientific papers on issues like hand washing vs. automated hand dryers and specific microbiological hazard information explaining why and how outbreaks happened and more importantly what you can do to avoid such an incident.
