The American Feed Industry Association will
host a Safe Feed/Safe Food webinar April 7, at 2 pm EST, to discuss its recent
certification program updates. The webinar - coordinated by the Safe Quality
Food Institute - will address the major changes to the FSC36 Safe Feed/Safe
Food guidance document, how the changes will impact facilities and the purpose
behind the newly revised guidance document.
Changes to the program are listed in the
FSC36 Safe Feed/Safe Food guidance document located on the Safe Feed/Safe Food website and include updates to the registration and certification process,
implementation process, introduction to the guidance document, guidance
document for FSC36, glossary and use of seal or logo.
"The implementation process now
provides facilities with a more user-friendly format by allowing auditors to
spend additional time reviewing documentation and manufacturing processes, and
streamlining the program to support compliance with the Food Safety Modernization
Act. In addition, the ‘self-audit’ has been replaced with a ‘surveillance
audit,’ which will be completed by the certifying body," said Henry
Turlington, AFIA director of quality and manufacturing regulatory affairs.
The new FSC36 Safe Feed/Safe Food guidance
document will assist facilities with designing, developing, implementing and
maintaining a quality and feed safety program that complies with the desired
requirements of the program, and assist auditors with auditing locations
seeking certification for FSC36 Safe Feed/Safe Food. There are numerous
examples provided within the guidance document to assist facilities with
preparation for compliance with the requirements.
There is no cost to participate in the
webinar, but registration is limited. To register for the webinar, click HERE.
