training meets the law's requirements, especially when
employees rely on previous work experience. Facilities
can send their employees to receive a certification through
the Food Safety Preventive Controls Alliance's (FSPCA)
Preventive Controls for Animal Food training, which provides the only "standardized curriculum" FDA recognizes
as "adequate" for PCQI training.
Company policies for inspections
If facilities do not want photos taken during inspections,
they are encouraged to formally write this in their company policies. AFIA reminds facilities that the FDA may
take photos for food safety reasons and inspectors are
permitted to take photos of anything they deem necessary
in the interest of protecting public and animal health.
Facilities are reminded that, in general, investigators
can view and copy all documents in the animal food
safety plan as well as certain training records and other documents as prescribed in the FSMA final rule for
animal food. Investigators generally do not have the authority to view animal food formulas or other proprietary
information without justification, such as if they believe
there may be a potential food safety issue.
Be prepared!
It is important to remember that facilities may have
more inspections depending on the types of pet foods
they are producing or ingredients they are handling. The
FDA will visit manufacturers based on their locations,
previous compliance history, assigned risks or should
there be due cause. The inspections may be coupled with
other types of inspections and may span several days.
A good way to ensure your facility is ready for FSMA is
to participate in AFIA's Safe Feed/Safe Food Certification
Program. Additionally, the FSC32 certification, for pet
food and pet food ingredients, is the only program benchmarked with the Global Food Safety Initiative, meaning it
meets internationally accepted standards for food safety
within the food retail industry.
AFIA would love to hear from pet food manufacturers on how their inspections are going! Contact Louise
Calderwood at lcalderwood@afia.org.
