The Management practice element covers the commitment by senior management
to ensure that your establishment
can meet all the relevant requirements and maintain an effective approved arrangement.
As part of good management practice,
your site is expected to have documented procedures in place
which includes an organisational structure.
This is often represented by an organisational chart,
with supporting Information.
The organisational structure must represent
all key employees who have a role within your facility
and document how information flows between different levels of management.
Roles and responsibilities of all relevant personnel must be available for all staff members.
Management review meetings should be conducted at least annually
to review your approved arrangement,
and records of these reviews must be kept.
Senior management must show their commitment in a written statement
ensuring their establishment can comply with the Export Control Act 2020
and the Export Control Rules Milk and Milk Products 2021.
The written statement must also include a commitment
confirming their management's intention
to provide adequate resources
to ensure all aspects of their approved arrangement, and food safety plans
can be met and document ongoing compliance.
Any changes you wish to make to your approved arrangement
must be clearly documented.
