What is ISO ?
• International Standardization Organization
– Non-governmental
– A network of national standards bodies (148 countries)
– A bridge between public and private sectors
• An ISO Standard
– Voluntary (no legal authority)
– Purpose:
• To facilitates exchanges (trade) - hamonizing national standards
• Meet a real need (market driven)
– Work of Experts – outcome is achieved by consensus
– Specific Auditable Requirements
• Well-known ISO management standards:
– ISO 9000 (generic quality management)
– ISO 14000 (generic environmental management)

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
Producers of pesticides,
fertilizers, and veterinary
drugs
Crop producers
Food chain for the
production of ingredients
and additives
Feed producers
Regulatory authorities
Transport and storage operators

CIES comments 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).

CIES comments 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.

CIES comments 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.
