SFCR: Comparison with FSMA

Course Description

This 2-days course introduces and helps you to understand requirements of The Safe Food for Canadians. It provides you with an in-depth overview of the purpose and requirements of the The Safe Food for Canadians Regulations (SFCR).

The regulations will improve Canada’s food safety system and allow the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) to create a stronger, more consistent and preventive system with a risk-based inspection model. This course provides a comparison of the key elements of the SFCR with the U.S. FDA FSMA Preventive Controls for Human Food rule requirements. You will gain a solid understanding of the North American regulatory landscape and become familiar with the U.S. FDA-Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) Food Safety Systems Recognition Arrangement, differences in preventive controls terminology and requirements, and documentation requirements.
