Deliverables of ISO 22000(1) • Can be used as the basis of any food safety management system, with or without 3rd party certification • Requirements for addressing (assessing and implementing) food safety concerns of customers(e.g. retailers) and regulators
Deliverables of ISO 22000 (2) Combines recognized key food safety elements: • System management (ISO 9000 approach) • Interactive communication along the food chains • Prerequisite programmes • Delivers a Hazard control system that can be Validated and • Verified through the combination of control measures, managed • and implemented by • A HACCP plan and/or • Operational prerequisite programs
Scope – the whole food chain Regulatory authorities Producers of pesticides, fertilizers, and veterinary drugs Crop producers Food chain for the production of ingredients and additives Feed producers Transport and storage operators Primary food producers Producers of equipment Producers of cleaning and sanitizing agents Food producers Producers of packaging materials 2nd food processors Service providers Wholesalers Food service operators/caterers Retailers Consumers
Intended use of ISO 22000 (one segment in the food chain – not all companies work on the same level ) ISO 22000 BRC/IFS… National legislationbasedupon Codex HACCP Guidelines Willing & capable Willing, but not (yet) capable Not willing, not capable
CIEScomments on DIS 22000 January 2005 (1) The ISO 22000 standard as it is today, combines very well an ISO 9000 type approach to a management system with HACCP. However, if the ISO 22000 standard would be benchmarked against the GFSI Guidance Document, it wouldn’t pass the preliminary screening, for missing one of the three ‘key elements’ Good Manufacturing (or Agricultural) Standards.
7.2.3 When selecting and establishing PRP(s), the organization shall consider and utilize appropriate information (e.g. regulations, customer requirements, recognized guidelines, Codex Alimentarius Commission (Codex) principles and codes of practices, national, international or sector standards). NOTE Annex C gives a list of relevant Codex publications. The organization shall consider the following when establishing these programmes: a) construction and lay-out of buildings and associated utilities; b) lay-out of premises, including workspace and employee facilities; c) supplies of air, water, energy and other utilities; d) supporting services including waste and sewage disposal; e) suitability of equipment and its accessibility for cleaning, maintenance and preventative maintenance; f) management of purchased materials (e.g. raw materials, ingredients, chemicals, packaging), supplies (water, air, steam, ice, etc.), disposals (e.g. waste and sewage), and handling of products (e.g. storage and transportation); g) measures for the prevention of cross contamination; h) cleaning and sanitizing; i) pest control; j) personnel hygiene; k) other aspects as appropriate. Verification of PRP(s) shall be planned (see 7.8) and PRP(s) shall be modified as necessary (see 7.7). Records of verifications and modifications shall be maintained. Documents should specify how to manage PRP(s). Demand GMP/GAP
CIEScomments on DIS 22000 January 2005 (2) ISO 22000 refers to ‘customer requirements’, which in the case of private label manufacturers effectively refers to the GFSI Benchmarked Standards, so why use ISO 22000 in the first place? ISO 22000 comes without a protocol and retailers cannot have control over it. Retailers need a protocol to answer liability issues.
2 Potential of ISO 22000 hamonization - perhaps not all – but some .

ISO 22000 will be a series of documents ISO 22000 - Requirements ISO 2200x - Guidance. ISO 2200x - Handbook for SME’s ISO 2200x - Traceability Agenda item for WG8 in April 2005 ISO 2200x – Guidelines for certification Input from CIES ? (Guide 4 version)
CIEScomments on DIS - ISO 22000 January 2005 (3) On a more general note, ISO 22000 is rather extensive and it remains to be seen whether smaller manufacturers and farmers could adopt it. CIES have stated publicaly: ”Draft of ISO 22000 does not meet retailers’ requirements”. This statement has been a great cause of concern to the International Standards Organisation as they mandated the developemnet of this standard and invited CIES to participate.
