ISO/TC 34/SC 17 Food Safety Management Systems

ISO 22003-1:2022

Note: ISO 22003-1 supplements ISO 17021-1:2015, the standard for the accreditation of bodies providing audit and certification of all types of management systems.

FSMS certification – a certification, based on ISO’s harmonized requirements for management systems, that incorporates food safety requirements based on the international accepted principles of food safety (i.e. prerequisite programs and, as appropriate, control measures that result from either a site-specific or generic hazard analysis).
