Baeza, R. (2025). Measuring calibration of internal food safety auditors in a food manufacturing plant. In Proceedings of the 31st International Conference on Industry, Engineering and Management Systems (IEMS), 31, 180-194. https://doi.org/10.62704/10057/31321
Abstract
The author of this case study collaborated with a food manufacturing facility that produces a range of food products. Food safety audits are crucial for identifying risks and creating a robust food safety culture. An internal food safety audit serves as a continuous improvement tool and prepares for food safety certifications or other standards; however, if auditors are not proficient, food safety audits may be less effective. Measuring internal auditors' calibration can provide value, ensuring that auditors understand the standards and associated food safety risks. This case study analyzed metrics to measure the calibration of internal food safety auditors.
