3. Who is ISO?
• The International Organization for Standardization
(ISO) creates many different types of standards.
– ISO is made up of Standards Institutes from 154 different
countries.
– Member countries work together to develop and approve
standards.
www.22000-Tools.com 3

4. What is ISO 22000?
• It is a Food Safety Management System (FSMS)
that uses a management system approach and
HACCP requirements.
• The goal is to provide one internationally
recognized standard for a food safety management
system that can be applied to any organization in
the food chain.

5. What is FSSC 22000?
• FSSC 22000 is a Food Safety Certification that
uses ISO 22000 and PAS 220
• PAS 220 gives the requirements for Prerequisite Programs for
food manufacturers.
• This document was added to ISO 22000 to create a system that
could be benchmarked by the Global Food Safety Initiative
(GFSI)
• Some large retailers require suppliers to have a GFSI
benchmarked scheme.

6. FSSC 22000 or ISO 22000?
• If your customers want a GFSI registration scheme,
then you will use FSSC 22000
• FSSC 22000 applies only to food manufacturers, so
if you are not a manufacturer, you will use ISO
22000
• Manufacturers will need to evaluate the market and
determine which standard is most appropriate for
them

7. How does an organization become
22000 registered?
• You need to decide if your goal is ISO 22000
compliance-
– You will implement the system and follow it, and
use self-assesment to demonstrate conformity
• If your goal is ISO 22000 Registration
– You will implement the ISO 22000 system in your
organization,
• If your goal is FSSC 22000 Registration
– You will implement the ISO 22000 system, and the
PAS 220 prerequisite programs

8. Implementation Techniques
www.22000-Tools.com
8

9. Implementation of ISO 22000 or FSSC 22000
• You will need to develop an implementation plan that
covers:
– Education on the contents of the standard
– A comparison of your current system to the requirements of ISO
22000, often called a gap analysis
– A comparison of your current prerequisite programs against the
requirements of PAS 220 (for FSSC 22000)
– A timeline of the implementation steps based on the gap analysis
– Time to run the Food Safety Management System, collect records
and make improvements before your registration audit.

10. Implementation Steps
• Assign a Food Safety Management Team
– This team will be active in the design and development of the FSMS
and participate in the continued management of the system.
• Assign a Management Team (22000 Steering Team)
– This team will also be active in both the design and development and
the ongoing management of the system.
www.22000-Tools.com 10

11. Implementation Steps:
• The Management Team will act as a steering team
for the project, assigning responsibilities, providing
resources and coordinating the project.
– The Management Team can assign task teams to work
on specific processes that must be designed and
documented for the FSMS.
www.22000-Tools.com 11

12. Implementation Steps:
• Each task team will evaluate the current process
that they are assigned to and the requirements of
the standard.
– A new or modified process will be developed,
documented and submitted to the Management Team for
review and approval.
www.22000-Tools.com 12

13. Implementation Steps
• After the task teams have designed and
documented a new or modified process, it must be
implemented. Train all employees that are involved
in the process
• When the required processes have been
implemented, start your internal audit program and
management review meetings.
www.22000-Tools.com 13

14. Implementation Steps
• Use information from internal audits and
management review to make improvements to the
FSMS. Run your system long enough to generate
records for the Registrar to audit.
• Make sure all employees are trained on your 22000
FSMS
• Have a Registrar conduct your Registration Audit.

15. Overview of Requirements
ISO 22000 and FSSC 22000
www.22000-Tools.com
15

16. Overview of Requirements:
General
• The organization must develop an
effective system that meets the
requirements of the Standard, document,
implement and maintain the system.
• The system must be evaluated and
updated to stay current.
www.22000-Tools.com 16

17. Overview of Requirements:
Management
• Management must be involved in and committed to the
FSMS. They will write the Food Safety Policy and be
responsible for making sure it is communicated and
implemented.
• Top Management must be involved in the design and
implementation of the FSMS. Many specific responsibilities
are assigned to Top Management to ensure their input and
participation.
• After implementation Management will conduct
management review to ensure continued effectiveness of
the system.
www.22000-Tools.com 17

18. Overview of Requirements:
Resources
• The FSMS must clarify what resources, human and
physical are required to create safe product.
• During development of the system you will
determine how to ensure competent personnel,
identify training that is required, and identify the
infrastructure and work environment required
www.22000-Tools.com 18

19. Overview of Requirements:
Making your product
• Your organization will need to plan all of the
processes that go into making your product to
ensure safe product.
• Prerequisite programs will be established,
implemented and evaluated on an ongoing basis. If
you are looking for FSSC 22000 Certification, your
prerequisite programs must meet the requirements
of PAS 220.
www.22000-Tools.com 19

20. Overview of Requirements:
Making your product
• Establish and document a system for:
– Collecting preliminary information for hazard analysis
– Conducting hazard analysis
– Establishing the HACCP Plan
– Conducting verification activities
– Tracing product, materials and distribution
www.22000-Tools.com 20

21. Overview of Requirements:
Nonconforming Product
• Establish and document a system for controlling all
nonconforming product
– When a Critical Control point is exceeded potentially
unsafe product must be identified, assessed, controlled
and dispositioned appropriately. An established
withdrawal process is necessary so quick action can be
taken if needed.
– Identify corrections and corrective actions to be taken to
eliminate the nonconformity and the cause of
nonconformity.
www.22000-Tools.com 21

22. Overview of Requirements:
Validation
• Establish and document a process to validate
control measures before they are implemented.
Plan for revalidation when changes are made.
• Ensure that all measuring and monitoring devices
and methods are capable of providing the accuracy
needed.
www.22000-Tools.com 22

23. Overview of Requirements:
Verification
• Establish and document an internal audit process.
Train auditors, and plan internal audits to establish
an audit program that will determine if the FSMS is
effective and up to date.
• Implement a process for the Food Safety Team to
evaluate and analyze verification results and take
any necessary actions.
www.22000-Tools.com 23

24. Overview of Requirements:
Improvement
• Continually improve the FSMS through the use of:
– Management review
– Internal audits
– Corrective actions
– Verification results
– Validation results
• Update the FSMS
