ISO 22000 Internal Auditor vs HACCP Internal Auditor
Both qualifications matter. They cover different scopes. Many auditors hold both.
ISO 22000 IA Scope (Broad)
Full FSMS audit — context of organization, leadership, planning, support, operations (including HACCP), performance evaluation, improvement. All 10 clauses of ISO 22000.
HACCP IA Scope (Narrow)
HACCP system audit specifically — hazard analysis, CCPs, monitoring, verification, HACCP plan management. Sub-component of FSMS audit. View HACCP IA →
When You Need Both
Most FSSC 22000 / BRCGS auditors hold both credentials. ISO 22000 IA covers the management system structure. HACCP IA gives deeper HACCP-specific audit competence.
For FSSC 22000 Operations
FSSC 22000 = ISO 22000 + PRPs + FSSC additional requirements. ISO 22000 IA covers the ISO 22000 portion. Often combined with FSSC-specific training.
For BRCGS Operations
BRCGS uses different structure but shares HACCP foundation. ISO 22000 IA provides relevant audit methodology with HACCP IA covering the HACCP-specific elements.
For ISO 22000 Standalone
For organizations certified only to ISO 22000 (not FSSC), the ISO 22000 IA is the primary internal audit credential needed.
