GMP Audit - Low Risk Non-Production
This GMP audit checklist is designed for low risk, non production areas to help teams maintain food safety and quality standards. It guides auditors through checks on staff adherence to GMP and PPE, personal hygiene, cleanliness of lights, walls, floors, and doors, and the condition of sockets, pipes, and fixtures. It covers pest activity, correct and current signage, pallet and crate integrity, refrigeration unit cleanliness, and equipment hygiene. The audit also reviews forklifts and pallet jacks, storage and cleanliness of cleaning equipment with proper color coding, chemical labeling and storage, product labeling for traceability, toolbox control, waste bin management, workstation orderliness, racking condition, and room temperature control. Scoring guidance helps classify non conformances for corrective actions.
