BRCGS issue 8 for Supervisors and Line Managers

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS COURSE IS AN EXCLUSIVELY ON-SITE WORKSHOP (For 6 delegates or more)

Overview

BRCGS issue 8 is an international standard that specifies the requirements for a quality and food safety management system. Certification to this standard will afford organisations in the food chain an opportunity to demonstrate their ability to control food safety hazards and to ensure that safe product is provided to customers according to their specific quality requirements.

The success of a food safety and quality management system often depends on Supervisors and Line Managers.  They have to ensure that the requirements of the Standard are consistently applied.  For them to do this effectively, they require an understanding of the reasons behind the rules and to obtain a bigger picture of the meaning of the requirements.
