The GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) audit in food factories in Australia is vital to ensure the safety and quality of food products. Conducted by regulatory authorities such as Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ), the audit assesses compliance with food safety standards. Inspectors evaluate the cleanliness and maintenance of facilities to ensure they prevent contamination. The audit reviews manufacturing processes, including ingredient handling, storage, and packaging, to verify they meet GMP requirements. Documentation, such as production records and quality control logs, is scrutinized to ensure traceability and consistency. Personnel training and hygiene practices are also assessed to confirm staff understand and follow GMP protocols. Compliance with GMP standards is essential for legal operation and consumer safety in the food industry. Non-compliance can result in penalties, product recalls, and damage to a company's reputation. The FSANZ provides guidelines and support to help food manufacturers prepare for and pass GMP audits. Regular GMP audits promote continuous improvement and high standards in food production, ensuring safe and reliable food for consumers.
