FSSC 22000 templates and records
Eight records required by the additional requirements of FSSC 22000 Version 6, which is what the scheme asks for over and above ISO 22000. Those of the base standard — hazard control plan, validation, verification, traceability — have their own sheets in the ISO 22000 templates.
In one sentence
FSSC 22000 is certified on the basis of ISO 22000, a sector prerequisite programme and its own additional requirements, and it is the latter that add specific records: the food defense plan, the food fraud vulnerability assessment, the allergen management plan, environmental monitoring, food safety culture objectives, quality control with line clearance, the equipment purchase specification and the food loss and waste plan.

Frequently asked questions
What people ask us before getting started
What records does FSSC 22000 add to ISO 22000?
Those arising from the scheme's additional requirements: food defense plan, food fraud vulnerability assessment, allergen management, environmental monitoring, food safety culture, quality control, PRP verification, equipment management and food loss and waste, among others.
What is an OPRP?
An operational prerequisite programme: a control measure for a significant hazard that is not a CCP, with a measurable or observable action criterion rather than a critical limit. ISO 22000 requires you to decide for each hazard whether it is controlled by a CCP or an OPRP.
Where are the HACCP plan, traceability and supplier evaluation?
They are requirements of ISO 22000, the scheme's base standard, and are explained in the ISO 22000 templates. Only the records FSSC adds are here; each sheet links to the base standard or BRCGS template that deals with the same topic from another angle.
