Food Safety
Auditing
Food safety auditing systematically evaluates food production, processing, and handling practices to ensure compliance with established safety standards and regulations.
Food safety audits are crucial for preventing foodborne illnesses, ensuring product quality, and maintaining consumer trust in food products. These are also essential to ensure premises remain legally compliant not to mention the protection of customer brand name

Assessment:
Auditors review facilities, procedures, and documentation to assess compliance with food safety regulations and standards, such as those set by the UK Food Standards Agency; International Standards such as BRCGS; ISO; EFSIS; then local standards such as SALSA etc.
Inspection:
On-site inspections of the facilities, equipment, and hygiene practices are conducted to identify potential hazards and areas for improvement.
Documentation Review:
Auditors examine records related to food safety management systems, such as hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) plans, training logs, and corrective actions.
Interviews:
Engaging with staff to understand their knowledge of food safety practices and protocols.
Reporting:
After the audit, a report detailing findings, compliance levels, and improvement recommendations are generated.
