Planning

Planning combines ISO 22000's risk-based approach with the prerequisites and hazard analysis that hold up the whole system.

Content reviewed on

Risks and opportunities

Identifying risks and opportunities for the food safety management system, beyond the product hazard analysis.

Food safety system objectives

Measurable objectives, consistent with the policy, with an action plan and regular tracking.

Planning of changes

Any relevant change to product, process or facilities is planned by evaluating its food safety impact before it is introduced.

What an auditor usually asks for

  • A risk-and-opportunity register for the system
  • Food safety objectives with an indicator, an owner and a date
  • A change-impact assessment procedure
  • An action plan per objective with regular tracking

How to cover planning in Kimobox

  1. 1Log the system's risks and opportunities in a versioned register.
  2. 2Define food safety objectives with an indicator and let the system track them.
  3. 3Document the impact assessment for every relevant change before applying it.

Every relevant change stays linked to its impact assessment, never applied without a prior review.
