In the food sector, training in food safety is essential to maintain high standards of safety and quality in products. The DC3 certification not only meets legal requirements but also equips employees to tackle daily challenges in pest control. With MITERI University from Fumigaciones JJMiteri, companies can ensure that their team is prepared to comply with regulations and avoid risks.
ISO 22000:2018 is an international standard that establishes the requirements for a Food Safety Management System (FSMS) aimed at ensuring that products are safe at all stages of the process. One of the key points is the establishment of Prerequisite Programs (PRPs), where pest control is presented as a fundamental necessity to prevent biological, physical, and chemical contaminations.
The hazards associated with pests, such as rodents, insects, or birds, can compromise food safety by contaminating products or raw materials. Therefore, pest control is not only a requirement within the FSMS but is also vital for complying with the standards of the Codex Alimentarius, a set of international regulations that protect consumer health.
The Codex Alimentarius provides guidelines and codes of practice that promote the safety and quality of food. This regulation closely aligns with the principles of ISO 22000:2018, complementing the requirements for the management of food hazards. In this regard, pest control is a fundamental preventive measure for both ISO and Codex, allowing companies to ensure the integrity of their products.
