Food Safety Management Systems
A Food Safety Management System is a systematic approach to controlling food safety hazards within a food business in order to ensure that food is safe to eat. All businesses are required by law to put in place, implement and maintain a Food Safety Management System based on the principles of “Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point” (HACCP). The type of system you need will depend on the size and type of business. Large businesses and manufacturers will need very detailed written systems, whereas smaller caterers and retailers may need less detailed systems.
Our “Safe, Legal & Compliant”© Food Safety Management System has been developed to assist businesses in complying with this important legal requirement. Our management system is based upon HACCP principles and the requirements for food safety managements systems outlined in ISO22000 – 2005.
