The Impact of ISO 22000 Certification on Qatari Food Operations

ISO 22000 certification will substantially affect Qatari food operations by providing a solid platform for the management of food safety. ISO 22000 informs food-based organizations systematically about their ability to identify and assess potential hazards related to food safety along their production chain from “farm to fork.” By ISO 22000, food businesses in Qatar will have enhanced risk management practices while assuring adherence to and implementation of safety protocols at every stage of food business operation.

This improves compliance to both local and international regulations and promotes a culture of accountability and continuous improvement among staff employees. Training on the principles of ISO 22000 Certification in Qatar develops an employee’s knowledge about food safety, in turn resulting in more vigilant practices and reducing foodborne illnesses.
