Food safety is one of the biggest humanitarian challenges our world faces today. Altered and unhealthy food items make their way to market shelves and get consumed by people, causing various health problems. This problem implies the need for a robust food safety management (FSM) system that ensures that food remains uncontaminated and guards the supply chain through which food reaches consumers. Creating such a system requires that we take a holistic approach by implementing a standardized approach.

The FSSC (Food Safety System Certification) 22000 is a globally recognized and accepted standard that helps organizations related to the food supply chain create an environment that ensures the safety of the food items being produced or processed. However, many food safety professionals need a clear explanation of the FSSC 22000 standard and its requirements.
