Basic HACCP and FSSC 22000 Training

FSSC 22000 is a food safety management system that is based on the ISO 22000 standard and is recognized by the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI). The certification scheme focuses on ensuring food safety within the food industry. It is based on HACCP according to Codex Alimentarius and the management principles according to ISO, together with additional requirements of FSSC.
