Codes of practice (COPs)

A code of practice reflects acceptable industry-agreed practice. It shows ways you can meet regulatory requirements for your specific operation.

Use these codes of practice to:

• develop your risk management programme (RMP)

• develop your food safety programme (FSP).

Note you can also base your RMP on a template or a model (if available), or write your own from scratch, following the RMP manual.
