Why do I need to get my Programme audited within 28 days of getting it approved?

0

If a Food Safety Programme is approved (and given an exemption from the Food Hygiene Regulations) by the NZFSA, then it must be audited within 28 days. This is important because although the NZFSA’s staff will consider the suitability of the Programme, generally their scrutiny will be limited to a review of the written systems, and not take into account whether the Programme works in practice. That is the job of the Auditor. It is important that this audit occurs without too much delay. The NZFSA have established a 28 day rule and request that businesses arrange for the audit to take place as soon as possible after receiving notice of exemption.
