What is ISO 22000 Certification?

 ISO 22000 is an internationally recognized standard that outlines the requirements for a food safety management system. It combines and supplements the core elements of ISO 9001 and HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points). ISO 22000 Certification in Oman ensures that a company has a robust food safety management system in place, from farm to fork. This certification covers all organizations in the food chain, from producers to processors and distributors.

  2. Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP): Identification and control of food safety hazards through systematic risk assessment and implementation of critical control points.
  3. Management Responsibility: Commitment from top management to support the food safety management system and allocate necessary resources.
  4. Internal Communication: Effective communication within the organization to ensure food safety practices are followed and understood by all employees.
  5. External Communication: Communication with suppliers, customers, and other relevant stakeholders about food safety requirements and practices.
  6. System Management: Ongoing management, monitoring, verification, and validation of the food safety management system to ensure its effectiveness.
