The monthly audit covers basic compliance to hygienic practices, structural deficiencies and general compliance to SHOTT's food safety & quality policies and procedures. Any critical or major issues which can affect SHOTT's food safety & quality standard will be escalated immediately and appropriate actions will be taken.
-
Any non-conformances will be scored based on their risk - Critical (directly affect food safety), Major (may contaminate food or affect product quality) or Minor (not expected to have a direct effect on food safety or product quality). Corrective action must be taken with all details recorded on the report - the applicable department manager is responsible for this.
