FSSC 22000 V 5.1
What's FSSC 22000?
FSSC 22000 is a certification scheme for auditing and certification of Food Safety Management Systems (FSMS), owned by a legal entity under Dutch law, called the Foundation FSSC 22000. The foundation also offers certification for combined FSMS and QMS (abbreviated as FSSC 22000-Quality).
There are 3 required components for this scheme as follows:
- ISO 22000:2018, Food safety management systems – Requirements for any organization in the food chain
- Sector-specific pre-requisite programs (PRPs) e.g. ISO’ technical standards
- FSSC 22000 requirements (additional)
From ISO 22000 to FSSC 22000
When already certified to ISO 22000, an organization only needs additional
- Review of technical specifications for sector PRPs, and
- The FSSC additional requirements to meet all scheme requirements
Benefits of FSSC 22000
The benefits include
- The scheme has the flexibility to cover the entire supply chain.
- It can be easily integrated with any other management system standard e.g. ISO 14001.
- The scheme is globally recognized/accepted.
- Incorporates the international standard ISO 22000 (for Food
Safety Management Systems), which includes the HACCP principles of
Codex Alimentarius, sector-specific pre-requisite program requirements and FSSC 22000 additional requirements. - Legal compliance, as it requires adherence to relevant national statutory and regulatory requirements.
IDSE diploma was a great experience to my career. At first when I was introduced to the course, I felt it wasn’t worth it until I started to show more interest with the help of the institute. All the process went smoothly from enrolment until the exam date. The course content is very good and I advised those of you who want to have a level 6 diploma to give it a try. I started the process by January this year and my first exam was February which I wrote and passed at the first attempt, the second exam was in April which I also passed. ‘Business Excellence’ institutes have qualified tutors who can guide you all through the process and encourage you to study. I advise anyone who wants to enroll in IDSE to go with this institute.

Instrumentation EngineerWe recently had a contract with BEC to cope up with the requirements of ISO certification, OSHAD and EAD; and it was quite a good experience as we complied in a limited time frame. The facilitator Mr. Waqar found to be responsive and had in-depth knowledge of the UAE’s OS&H-related regulations.

HSE EngineerI really appreciate the technical team at ‘Business Excellence for being so prompt in doing the needful in regards to the approval of management systems (against OSHAD SF V 3.1) by Abu Dhabi Municipality. I truly endorse them for being competent and delivering on time, as committed.
Zublin Construction
HSE ManagerThe audit team is very competent. I liked them for being polite, courteous, and open-minded. If it’s not clear the first time; they’d repeat the question in another way, and then give chance to auditees to make their point. This was not just an audit but also an opportunity to learn. I recommend it to any company having an annual 3’rd party legal compliance audit (OSHAD).

Mr. Adnan Manzoor, HR & Training ManagerIt was a challenge for us to implement our management system in line with the OSHAD and Department of Culture & Tourism. However, through our annual agreement, they have helped us comply with legal requirements in an easy way. I like their approach and methodology and strongly recommend to any high-risk company for the development and implementation of their management systems.

Pradip Devkota, HSE ManagerI’ve worked with many 3’rd party ISO consultants; however, most of them use copy-paste approach. However, I consider Business Excellence different and the best choice for various reasons. They helped us understand the standards in the context of our business; engaged all the key process owners; and their tips on implementation towards effective and efficient management systems in spirit; not just for the sake of documentation. I highly recommend Business Excellence to any company that’s looking for an ISO certification solution.
