FSSC 22000 V5.1- Hot from the Oven

-by Danielle Tan (Managing Consultant)

The Foundation FSSC 22000 has published version 5.1 of its FSSC 22000 certification scheme on 3rd November 2020.

The main reasons for an updated version are compliance with the latest benchmarking requirements of the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) and strengthened requirements for Certification Body (CB) performance as part of continuous improvement.

What to Expect

The new FSSC 22000 V5.1’s key changes include requirements specific to:

  1. Multi-site certification.
  2. Product design & development.

Organizations who are certified to FSSC 22000 V5 are expected to comply with these changes in their next upgrading audit.

Food Safety Culture

The GFSI food safety culture requirements specify elements related to:

  1. Employee communication.
  2. Employee training.
  3. Employee performance measurement.

These requirements have already been covered by ISO 22000:2018 standard. The Foundation has released a guidance document to demonstrate how these food safety culture requirements are being met.
