The management of the company feels

The management of the company feels that Halal
certification exercise affects the company’s net profit.
The reason is that Muslim customers will buy their
products because their products carry Halal certificate
issued by JAKIM, the government’s authority issuing the
Halal certificate. Because of this, the company ensured
that the Halal certification is issued by relevant authority
which is JAKIM and not from other existing private
companies issuing Halal certificates. Halal certification will
also provide a validity check for users to ensure the food
status. In terms of food safety, Halal Food Standard such
as Malaysian Standard MS 1500: 2004 Halal Food -
Production, Preparation, Handling and Storage is used as
a guide to maintain the process flows.
Halal, so consumers do not have to worry about the
cleanliness of the materials or ingredients used.
According to the representative of the Halal committee,
usually the company would apply for Halal certification of
their products 3 to 4 times per year. These applications are
just for new products to be launched beside renewal of
the existing products. Before they start the production for
a new product, the Quality Assurance (QA) department
will send a list of new products together with a list of
ingredients used and the source of the ingredients itself
to the Halal committee for Halal approval. The Halal
committee will verify the materials used with JAKIM to
see if all the materials to be used are certified Halal by
JAKIM. The QA department will then proceed with the
production processes and at the same time the committee
will apply for the Halal certification from JAKIM. Halal
certification application usually takes 6 months for
approval.
Food Safety: For safety and hygiene, the company has
introduced the food safety policy in order to ensure that
all the products achieve customers’ satisfaction and
confidence. The manufacturing and processing of bakery
and confectionary products were also involved in
controlling of raw materials, production and ensuring that
the products are safe for customer. The food safety
policies of this company are (a) committed to maintaining
the effectiveness of Food Safety Management System
(ISO 22000:2005) through monitoring and reviewing of the
actual performance of established food safety objectives,
(b) conform to the legislation, regulation and relevant
standard codes related to food safety, (c) Continually
improve the operation through adopting of effective Food
Safety Management System (ISO 22000:2005) requirement
whilst incorporating research and development, (d) be at
the forefront of product innovation and creativity to
ensure further commitment to food safety while being
result oriented at all times and (e) keeping the policy at
strategic locations and communicated to all level of
organization.
On top of this, the employees are guided by officers
during preparation and processing to ensure the
products’ safety and hygiene. There is only one entrance
to the factory, so, all workers will go in and out through
that entrance only, hence employees’ safety and hygiene
is controlled at the entrance for example, employees are
required to wash their hands before they enter the factory
and wear special clothing with hand gloves for safety and
cleanliness.
