In order for a food safety management system to be effective, it is essential that HACCP be supported by good manufacturing practices (GMP) that control the general hygiene and environmental conditions in a food operation.
The GMP described in this course are accepted requirements for prerequisites as defined in the CODEX Alimentarius General Principle of Food Hygiene.
By attending this GMP course delegates will demonstrate that you have the knowledge to identify risks due to poor implementation of GMP thus reducing the potential risk of food contamination.
Course Benefits
- Improved knowledge of GMP
- Enhanced ability to identify potential food safety risks from GMP

- Chefs (senior level)
- Production Managers
- Maintenance Managers
- Purchasers (who have impact on purchasing the correct raw material & incoming inspection)
- Stewarding Managers (hospitality)
- QA Managers
Learning objectives
- Explain food safety risks from good manufacturing practices
- Demonstrate knowledge of each good manufacturing practice component and their impact on food safety
