HACCP

Al Tawakkal provides assistance for HACCP certification in UAE. ISO 22000 Certification is a globally recognized standard for Food Safety Management Systems (FSMS) published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in September 2005. This standard is designed to enable organizations to control food safety hazards throughout the food chain, ensuring that food is safe for consumption. It helps implement HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) across the food supply chain.

The ISO 22000 Certification ensures international uniformity in food safety standards and is applicable to all organizations involved in any aspect of the food chain, including primary producers, food processors, retailers, storage facilities, transporters, the hospitality sector, and service providers to food establishments.

The ISO 22000:2018 Food Safety Management Standard is suitable for businesses throughout the food chain, including allied organizations such as equipment producers, packaging companies, cleaning agents, additives, and ingredients. It is ideal for companies looking to integrate their quality management system (ISO 9001:2015) with the Food Safety Management System.

The ISO 22000 Standard in the UAE focuses on implementing a Food Safety Management System with themes including system management, interactive communication, food safety hazard control through programs and HACCP plans, and continuous improvement of food safety systems.

The revised ISO 22000:2018 Standard addresses the latest trends in the food industry and food safety requirements, aiming to reduce food safety hazards effectively. It enhances risk analysis methodologies and ensures sustainable and hassle-free implementation.

The key benefits of ISO 22000:2018 include lowering the risk of food contamination, improved risk management, enhanced customer trust, and compliance with global standards. This standard aims to provide safe food products, meet regulatory requirements, evaluate customer preferences, and communicate food safety hazards effectively. It ensures food safety policies are practiced continuously and helps with risk analysis and quality improvement.

ISO 22000 is based on Codex Alimentarius, a globally recognized guideline for food safety. Following ISO 22000 best practices is essential for business sustainability and reducing risks related to food safety, as the food industry deals with consumables that can impact human life and brand image significantly.
