MORE RESOURCES COMING IN 2017

Training Modules– Willful acts of abuse– Timely Euthanasia– Medication & treatment records– Standard Operating Procedures

SOP toolkit

Highlights from the Audit Most of the audit is

animal benchmark 50.1%

Rest of the audit: Caretaker Facilities Records Transport Food Safety

Importance of Internal Audit Process Site must be able to produce evidence

of past internal site assessments.– Sow Farm - at least one in the past 3

months– Growing Herds – at least one in the past 6

months

5

21


• Education• Certification• Interval … 3 years

+

• Audit • Packer level initiated• Interval … ???

24


Audit Process

Make appointment, inquire about biosecurity protocols and follow those protocols

Use the common audit tool Ask the site personnel to acquaint them with the

facility, # of animals, & facility layout

Packer – initiates audit

Your Operation

Third-Party or Packer Auditor - contacts you

9

25


Auditor – Caretaker Interview Questions The “who”, “what”, “where”, “how”, and “why”

The auditor will probe beyond yes/no questions, for example:– What tasks are you responsible for?– How do you perform this task?– Where do you record treatment information?– What training did you receive to perform this

task?

CSIA pg. 10

26


Conducting an Audit MUST be accompanied by site personnel Observe all pigs while conducting an audit Animal benchmarking

- pre-determine # of pigs to observe base on: * Breeding Herd (gest/lactation/boar & individual/group) * Non-breeding ( <10 wks / >10 wks )

Observe facility maintenance, pen/crate space, feeders, waterers, load-out

Willful acts of abuse observed = Automatic FAIL … yet will complete the audit process

CSIA pg. 4 - 11

27


SOP’s - Standard Operating Procedures Auditors will ask to review SOP’s

– 10 required to receive all points on audit

Some interview questions will relate to SOP’s– Replies or explanation should match

SOP’s

SOP’s - Standard Operating Procedures 10 SOP’s required & accessible to caretakers on
