Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between health authorisation and approval?
Both regimes exist depending on the nature of the activity and the products. The morning explains which applies to your establishment and what each implies for the file and the visits; your case is checked during the workshop.
Does the training stand in for legal advice?
No. It gives quality teams and management an operational reading of the texts. For a question of interpretation on a particular case, ONSSA remains the reference contact.
Is it useful for a site already certified to a GFSI standard?
Yes. Private standards require compliance with the legislation of the country of production. The auditor checks the authorisation or approval and the compliance of labelling; the course helps you provide the evidence.
Can it be attended in Darija?
Yes, the session can be delivered in Darija or French, with bilingual materials. This is useful when team leaders accompany inspectors during visits.
