Can someone give me an example of a by-product outside the scope of the audit?

Hi SheenaQA&BRCGS,

From BRCGS Global Standard for Food Safety Issue 9 Clause 6.1.7 Guidance:

Examples of products outside of scope include, but are not limited to:

• by-products of the manufacturing process, which are not permitted to be included in the scope of the Standard (e.g. materials taken for non-food use)

• exclusions from scope (in accordance with section 1.6.2 of the audit protocol).

Examples of materials taken for non-food use that come to mind are things like coconut husk and feathers.

Kind regards,

Tony
