Hygiene and workers' health, safety and welfare (FV-GFS 19 and 20) – GLOBALG.A.P. Integrated Farm Assurance (IFA) Standard v6

GLOBALG.A.P. Integrated Farm Assurance (IFA) Standard v6 FV-GFS 19.02: FV-GFS 19.02 Documented hygiene procedures are in place to minimize food safety risks.

Written hygiene procedures follow the risk assessment and cover the relevant harvest and postharvest work. Signs or pictograms in the main language of the workforce explain the hygiene rules that apply to workers, visitors and subcontractors. Where protective clothing and equipment are needed, the employer supplies them and has them cleaned, maintained and stored so food safety risk stays low. Hands are washed whenever they could contaminate product, including before starting work and after using the toilet. The procedures also cover contamination by bodily fluids, reporting of illness (vomiting, jaundice, diarrhoea), keeping sick people away from product and deciding when they may return, and covering cuts, with gloves where appropriate. Observation shows the rules are not being broken.
