ISO 22000:2018 Food Safety Management
ISO 22000:2018 – Food Safety Management System (FSMS)
Ensuring Food Safety from Farm to Fork
ISO 22000:2018 is an international standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) for organizations of all sizes involved in any aspect of the food supply chain. The standard outlines the requirements for a Food Safety Management System (FSMS) that ensures safe food handling practices and provides consistent, reliable, and safe products for human consumption.
Whether you're a food producer, processor, distributor, retailer, or service provider, ISO 22000 helps you implement effective systems to manage food safety hazards and ensure consumer protection.
What ISO 22000:2018 Covers
ISO 22000 integrates key elements that form the foundation of an effective FSMS:
Interactive Communication – Ensures seamless communication across all parties in the food chain to identify and control risks effectively.
System Management – Aligns food safety with organizational objectives through structured management processes.
Prerequisite Programs (PRPs) – Establishes the basic environmental and operational conditions needed for food safety.
HACCP Principles – Incorporates Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) developed by the Codex Alimentarius Commission.
The standard requires organizations to identify, assess, and control potential hazards that can arise at any stage of the food chain. It helps determine which hazards must be managed and implements the appropriate control measures to ensure food is safe by the time it reaches the consumer.
