Codex General Principles of Food Hygiene (CXC 1-1969, Rev. 2022) 9.2.1: 9.2.1 Drainage and waste disposal facilities

Drainage and waste disposal systems are adequate, well maintained and built so they are unlikely to contaminate food or the water supply; plumbing prevents backflow, cross connections and sewer gas backup, and drainage never runs from highly contaminated areas (toilets, raw production) towards areas where finished food is exposed. Trained staff collect and dispose of waste, with disposal records where appropriate; the waste disposal site is away from the establishment; waste, by-product and inedible or hazardous substance containers are identifiable, suitably built and where appropriate impervious, and containers for hazardous substances awaiting disposal are marked and, where appropriate, lockable.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 3 controls across 2 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

US FDA Food Code 2026 · 2 controls

  • 5-201-5-202 5-201 and 5-202 Plumbing materials, design, construction and installation
  • 5-4 5-401 to 5-403 Sewage, other liquid waste and rainwater
  • cl5 Clause 5 Sewage and waste water disposal

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
