Frequently Asked Questions - GHP Consultant in Kitchener

What is the difference between GMP and GHP?
GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) broadly covers the manufacturing environment, equipment, and processes. GHP (Good Hygiene Practices) focuses specifically on personnel hygiene, facility cleanliness, sanitation programs, and preventing contamination. In Codex Alimentarius, GHP is the foundational layer of food safety, with HACCP built on top.
What does a GHP audit typically evaluate?
A GHP audit reviews: personnel hygiene (handwashing, illness reporting, protective clothing), facility cleaning and sanitation (procedures, chemical management, verification), pest control, waste management, water supply quality, and maintenance of hygienic facility design.
Why is a documented GHP program important for certification audits?
All GFSI-benchmarked certification schemes (SQF, BRC, FSSC 22000) require documented prerequisite programs including GHP. Inspectors review your written procedures, training records, and monitoring logs. A well-documented GHP program is often the difference between a passing and failing audit.
How does Iyarkai develop a customized GHP program for our facility?
We start with an on-site hygiene audit covering all Codex GHP sections. We then develop tailored written procedures, monitoring forms, and training materials specific to your facility layout, products, and team. We then train your personnel and verify implementation before any third-party audit.
