Following is a briefsummary of new food safety requirements for BRC certified sites to be releasedJanuary 7, 2015.
BRC《食品安全全球標準已經在2015年1月7日發布，以下是對于現有獲得BRC認證企業的關于新版《食品安全全球標準》主要變化簡要介紹。
Whois affected? 誰將受影響？
? All new and certified sites with planned (re)certification afterJuly 1, 2015
所有在2015年7月1日以后新申請認證審核和計劃接受再認證的企業。
? All suppliers, agents, and brokerssupplying to BRC certified sites
所有給獲得BRC認證企業供應產品的供應商，中間商和貿易商。
Whatare the most significant changes? 最顯著的變化是什么呢？
Two new Fundamental Sections 兩個基礎部分
1. Labeling and Pack Control 標簽和包裝控制
BRC has formalized packaging requirementsfrom Issue 6 and added some additional requirements in a new fundamentalsection to improve label and packaging control with the goal of reducing thenumber of recalls attributed to mislabeling.
以減少因為錯誤標簽而導致的產品召回的目標，BRC從第六版開始在一個新基礎章節增加了一些附加要求從而改進標準和包裝控制。
Mostnotably are new requirements for formal allocation of packaging materials tothe line and label verification.
最為顯著的要求是對于生產線的包裝材料的指定和標簽的驗證。
2. Management of Suppliers of Raw Materialsand Packaging 原料供應商和包裝供應商的管理
BRC has restructured supplier approvalrequirements from Issue 6 and identified it as a fundamental section. Updatesto supplier approval include increased requirements for supplier riskassessments and two new traceability clauses.
BRC重新解構了供應商批準的要求。從第六版開始，將此定義為基礎性章節。升級后，在供應商批準的要求中增加了供應商風險評估和兩個新可追溯性條款。
Withthe goal of increasing transparency across the supply chain and addressingtraceability issues from recent food recalls in the BRC Global Standard FoodSafety Issue 7. BRC will require sites to verify an effective traceabilitysystem for all suppliers AND verify traceability to the last manufacturer,packer, or grower when raw materials and packaging are purchased from an agentor broker.
從最近的食品召回事件可以看到，BRC全球標準食品安全第七版強調了增加供應鏈透明度和可追溯性的目標。BRC將會要求企業驗證所有供應商的可追溯系統有效性。并且當從中間商或者貿易商采購原料和包裝材料的時候，需要驗證可追溯性一直到最終的生產商，包裝商或者是種植者。
Whyis this significant? 這些意味著什么？
Fundamental sections are designated by BRCas critical to the implementation and maintenance of an effective food safetymanagement system. As such, major non-conformities assigned to the statement ofintent of a fundamental section during an audit results in non-certification(initial audit) or withdrawal of certification (re-certification audit).
基礎性章節是BRC認定的食品安全管理體系中必須嚴格執行并有效維護的部分。如果在審核過程中就基礎性章節發現了嚴重不符合項，會直接導致不頒發證書（初審）或者證書的撤銷（復審）。
Whatelse is new? 其他還有什么新的要求？
1.Product Authenticity, Claims and Chain of Custody 產品真實性申明和產銷鏈監管
In response to food fraud issues in recentyears, BRC is responding by adding a new section to Issue 7 with requirementsto minimize the risk of BRC certified sites purchasing fraudulent oradulterated raw materials.
對于近年來發生的食品欺詐事件的反應，BRC也在第七版中增加了新的章節加以應對，確保最小化BRC認證企業采購到摻假原料的風險。
Thenew section shall require sites to have: 新章節要求受審企業必須具備
? Procedures in place for accessinginformation and developing threats to the supply chain for adulteration orsubstitution of raw material (www.foodfraud.org)
識別和發現原料摻假或者以次充好對于供應鏈的威脅，并建立程序以便查詢和發展相關信息。
? Documented vulnerability assessments forall raw materials which considers historical evidence, nature of the rawmaterial, and economic factors 從歷史證據，原材料特性和經濟因素對所有的原材料進行脆弱性評估并形成相關文件。
? Risk mitigation where a risk isidentified 風險識別后的風險緩解措施
2.High Care for Ambient Products 高度關注常溫保存的產品
Also in response to food recalls, BRC hasrevised the High Care and High Risk guideline to require a documented riskassessment for ambient products, which support the survival of pathogenicmicroorganisms, to determine product risk from cross-contamination andeffective measures to prevent contamination of final product.
關于食品召回，BRC更新了高關注區和高風險區的指導原則以滿足常溫產品的風險評估的要求。該評估指導了致病菌的存活時間，確定了產品交叉污染的風險和有效防止措施，以避免最終產品的交叉污染。
3. Voluntary Modules 自愿性模塊
While not a requirement, BRC is adapting the Food Safety Standard to allow for voluntary modules to reduce multipleaudits and meet customer specific requirements. Non-conformities for voluntarymodules will not be counted against the site’s certification or grade.
雖然沒有要求，但是BRC還是采納了其他食品安全標準，以確保自愿性模塊的引用。以期達到減少重復的審核和滿足客戶的特定要求。自愿性模塊的不符合項不會計入審核，也不會影響得分。
Voluntary modules may include: 自愿性模塊可能包括：
? Chain of custody 產銷鏈監管
? Traded goods 貿易商品
? Food Defense 食品防護
? Food for animal feed 動物飼料
如何順利完成標準升級轉換，企業應根據第七版BRC 《食品安全全球標準》完成文件修改，并在新版體系運行后，完成一次內部審核和管理評審；必要時，可邀請第三方機構對公司的體系進行一次預評估：
-
The audit duration will be 1-2days (including reporting), depending on the company size and processcomplexity
根據客戶現場的大小和生產復雜程度的不同，評估現場1~2人天（包括報告）；
-
The auditor who carries out thegap analysis CANNOT carry out the subsequent certification audit
開展現場差距分析的審核員不能開展后續正式的審核工作。
