Management in the office is very essential for an
organized life and necessary to run all types of
organizations. Managing an organization is very
important means getting things done with and
through other people to achieve its objectives.
Management is the art and science of managing
people. Knowledge of management is very
important as it will help you identify and develop
the skills to better manage your career,
relationships, and the behavior of others in
organizations.
It may be convenient to separate the function of
management but practically these functions are
overlapping in nature i.e. they are highly
inseparable. Each function is connected with each
other and any one of them affects the whole chain
is affected.
The challenge of a manager is to solve problems
creatively. Managing a workplace solving issues
and making sure that the work is going on
smoothly is very important. So to manage all these
activities there are 4 principles of Management.
There are basically 4 primary functions of
management.
1.Planning
2.Organizing
3.Directing
4.Controlling
Vol.05-Issue.37-September 2024
Planning
Planning is the first and most important function
of management, planning is future-oriented. It is a
systematic way of making decisions today that will
affect the future of the company. Planning bridges
the gap between where we are and where we want
to go. Planning is deciding in advance - what to do
when to do & how to do it. It is the determination
of courses of action to achieve desired goals. Thus,
planning is systematic thinking about ways &
means for the accomplishment of pre-determined
goals.
Organizing
It is the process of bringing together physical,
financial, and human resources and developing
productive relationships among the employees so
that they can work effectively and efficiently. To
organize a business and to make it work one has to
provide it with everything useful for its functioning
i.e. raw material, tools, capital, and personnel.
Organizing a business involves determining &
providing all the resources that are required, to
work smoothly.

Directing has the following elements:
3.1 Supervision-
Supervision means overseeing the work of the
employees by their superiors. The act of watching
and directing them in case of any difficulty.
3.2 Motivation-
This means motivating and encouraging employees
to work accordingly. Motivation is important in any
workplace as sometimes due to unhealthy work
culture.
3.3 Leadership-
Leadership may be defined as a process by which a
leader guides and influences the work of
subordinates in the desired direction. And solve
their problems.
3.4 Communication-
Communication is the process of connecting with
someone and passing information, experience,
opinion, etc from one person to another.
Communication is a bridge of understanding.
Controlling
This is the last important function of management
controlling means checking whether proper
progress is made toward the objective or goal.
Controlling is done to ensure that everything occurs
in accordance with the standards. A good controlling
system can detect the problems that are going to
occur before they actually occur.
It includes monitoring the plan that is implemented
and correcting the deviation from that plan. The
main function of controlling is to check errors in
order to take corrective actions. Therefore
controlling has the following steps:
1.Establishment of standard performance.
2.Measurement of actual performance.
3.Comparison of actual performance with the
standards and finding out deviation if any.
4.Corrective action.
Directing
Directing is the third important function of
management. Directing main focus is on
instructing, guiding, inspiring, counseling, and
leading people toward the accomplishment of the
desired goal. It is a continuous process that goes
on, throughout the life of the organization.
Directing is the heart of the management process.
As we can say if a supervisor guides his
subordinates and tries to clarify his doubts about a
task, it will help the employee to achieve work
targets given to him as the right direction has been
given.

With the industrialization of food, there is an
increasing need for affordable, safe, and good-
quality food products. FSSC 22000 provides a
brand assurance platform to the food industry.
Food Safety System Certification 22000 (FSSC
22000) is an internationally accepted certification
scheme for certifying and auditing food safety
within the food and beverage industry. It is
accepted worldwide because it is recognized by
Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI).
PROTEIN FUNCTIONALIZATION
PROTEIN FUNCTIONALIZATION
What is the backbone of FSSC
22000?
1.Create and maintain an accurate and reliable register of
certified organizations that have demonstrated that they
meet the system’s requirements.
2.Support the accurate application of food safety and
quality management systems.
3.Promote national and international recognition and
acceptance of food safety and quality management
systems.
4.Provide information and campaigns on food safety and
quality management systems and support for the
certification of food safety management systems in food
safety and quality.
FSSC22000 is based on 3 components:
1.ISO22000- Provides a basic framework across the entire
framework.
2.PRPs- Includes requirements derived from BSI, PAS, and
ISO Technical Specification Standards.
3.FSSC22000 Additional Requirements- Covers those
requirements missed in ISO22000 and PRPs.
Aims and Objectives
FSSC supports the whole food supply chain. It covers:
Processing of ambient stable products
Production of feed
Production of pet food (only for dogs and cats)
Production of pet food (for other pets)
Catering
Which organizations can get FSSC
22000 certification?

2.The two Stages for the FSSC 22000 Audit -
a.STAGE 1:
Stage 1 verifies that the applicant follows the FSSC
22000 standards, own internal documents, and
regulations of the country. The applicant
organization must have at least six months of
verifiable records for the audit. After review, it will
include “areas of concern,” which will be categorized
as Major or Minor areas of concern. Finally, the
applicant will have up to 6 months to fix the errors.
The main objective of this stage is to assess the
preparedness for stage 2 of the organization.
b.STAGE 2:
In stage 2, activities subjected to the proposed
certification shall be assessed and shall take place
during the initial six months after stage 1. The site
shall be fully operational during the audit.
Applicants are issued with either Minor, Major, or
Critical findings. In the case of Major and Critical
results, the certificate will be issued once these
issues are resolved.
3.Certificate Issue:
After all the issues have been resolved to the
auditor’s satisfaction, the Certification Body shall
issue a certificate which essentially gives assurance
that all the standard's requirements have been met.
4.Surveillance Audits:
After the certification is issued, annual surveillance
audits shall be conducted within the three-year, of
which at least one must be unannounced.
5.Recertification Audits:
Recertification audits are conducted every three
years and usually coincide with a newer version of
FSSC 22000. It is a complete audit that encourages
the latest compliance and demonstrates the
organization’s competence.

Difference between FSSC 22000
and FSSC 22000 QUALITY
Combining FSSC 22000 and ISO 9001 is called FSSC
22000 QUALITY. FSSC 22000 QUALITY is for an
organization that wishes to integrate its Food
Quality Management System into the scope of
certification.
Audit and Certification Process of
FSSC 22000
1.Initial Certification Audit –
The initial certification audit includes: - fixing a
mutually convenient date for both the certification
body and the applicant, applicant, ensuring that it
has all the required documents, staff members, and
all the operations and processes ready to be
audited on the audit day.
The Directorate General of Goods and Services Tax Intelligence
(DGGI) has issued show cause notices to over a dozen food and
beverage companies for their franchisees' use of trademarks in
states other than where the companies are registered. These
notices demand approximately Rs. 3,000 crore in GST for
trademark services since July 2017, potentially leading to
increased tax complexities for the industry. According to
officials familiar with the matter, the DGGI sent the notices in
the first week of August. The notices specifically address the use
of trademarks by the companies' franchises and outlets in states
other than where the companies are registered, and the
demanded amount pertains to the period starting from July
2017, when GST was implemented. The development signals
heightened scrutiny on the usage of trademarks by businesses
operating in multiple states under the GST regime.

Several food and beverage companies
have received a notification regarding
their use of trademarks.
The government is requesting edible
oil companies to provide an
explanation for the increasing prices.
The government has recently requested edible oil companies to
explain the reasons behind the increase in retail prices of cooking
oils. This request comes despite earlier advisories from the
government to ensure price stability, especially considering the
availability of sufficient stocks imported at lower duties. In an effort
to support domestic oilseed prices, the Centre had increased the
basic customs duty on various edible oils on September 14. Following
this, a meeting was convened by the food ministry with industry
bodies on September 17 to emphasize the importance of not raising
retail prices. Despite these efforts, the government has observed an
upward trend in prices since the announcement of the import duty
hike. As a result, edible oil companies have been asked to provide
clarification and reasons for the price increase, particularly in light
of the government's directives to maintain retail prices during the
upcoming festival season.

Gaskets are essential for sealing irregular gaps and preventing leaks. Made from
elastoplastic materials, they deform under load to create a leak-proof seal. 🚫💧 However,
damaged gaskets can lead to product contamination, making it crucial to monitor their
condition. Why Gasket Mapping? This process helps in risk analysis, defining inspection
frequency, and ensuring the right materials and certifications are used.
