What’s in the Food Safety Standard?
The BRC Food Safety Standard can be used by any food processing operation where open food is handled, processed or packed. This could be from primary products such as fresh produce pack houses and slaughterhouses through to processed foods, canneries and ready to eat products. We’ve designed the BRC Food Safety Standard to help you establish good manufacturing practices so you’ll produce safe, legal products that meet the quality levels expected by your customers.

The Standard is divided into seven sections :

• Senior Management Commitment and Continual Improvement
• The Food Safety Plan (HACCP)
• Food Safety and Quality Management System
• Site Standards
• Product Control
• Process Control
• Personnel.
