4 Steps to a Basic Food Safety Program
Our Food Safety Programs are simple and easy to follow. We write up Independent Food Safety Programs and conduct basic food safety audits for Class 1 and Class 2 facilities including childcare centres, aged care facilities, hospitals, hospices and supermarkets.
For manufacturers, we can write up a Food Safety Program or a HACCP Plan.
Food Safety Programs
A Food Safety Program is required by businesses that handle, prepare, package, store, serve, supply and repackage food, in order to have a Food Business Registration. QMS Audits write up a customised Independent Food Safety Program to meet the requirements of safe food handling and a food safety audit.
What is the process for writing up a Food Safety Program
QMS Audits will visit your premises, map out all of your processes and identify each of the hazards that will need to be controlled. We inspect your kitchen or premises and give you an indication of what needs to be fixed prior to a basic food safety audit.
We will then write up the food safety program, using one of our templates that has been to audit several times previously. It usually takes us a few days from when we first come out to write up and finalise the food safety program.
Food Safety Audit
You will be required to have an independent Basic Food Safety audit to ensure the food safety program meets all of the requirements and then ensure that you have complied with the program. The auditor will check to make sure your facility meets all of the requirements of the Food Standards Code. We will inspect your facility and check compliance against it.
