EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
|
The methodologies used during the trial are described and the effects of SaFES on a food producer’s, reseller’s, consultant’s and auditor’s business, as seen by these user groups, is given. In addition the different requirements of diverse users such as non-primary food producers and supermarket chains are compared to the SaFES functions. Savings in the cost of HACCP, in both planning and day to day running phases, have been shown to be achievable. Conclusions gleaned from the trial are presented regarding psychological acceptance by users of such tools, effects on legislation and attitudes of regulatory bodies. |
