Common Swine Industry Audit Sherrie Webb Director, Swine Welfare National Pork Board

Outline Background and History of Quality Assurance Industry Audit Task Force Common Swine Industry Audit Next Steps and PQA Plus Comprehensive Quality Assurance

Background and History

Timeline and Evolution 1959 The first HACCP system developed 1989 The PQA® program is launched –Sulfa residues –Food safety 2001 TQA is launched –Meat quality –Animal care during handling and transport –V5 released this year 2003 SWAP program introduced –On-farm animal care –Site assessment 2005The Take Care program is released 2007The PQA Plus® program is launched 2008 The industry launches the We Care responsible pork initiative 2008 Packers show commitment to PQA Plus 4

PQA Plus Program Comprehensive platform to align producer performance with market chain expectations Guiding principles: – Workable – Credible – Affordable Voluntary education program available through Pork Checkoff – Pork Checkoff legally cannot restrict market access to producers. – Many packers require certification and/or site assessment as condition of sale Designed to be applicable to any pig farm independent of size, phase of production, building design, geographic location, etc.

Program Elements

Industry Evolution The industry is clearly moving towards individual on-farm audits to meet customer expectations. How do we avoid the British experience? Can the industry agree to one set of audit criteria? What is the future of PQA Plus? How can we position the US industry in the global marketplace re: animal welfare? – 2013 exports = 26% pork and variety meat production – 2013 value = $52.95/head

Industry Audit Task Force

2013 & 2014 Pork Forum Resolution NPB shall work with the various packers and other industry stakeholders to develop a common foundation for on-farm animal welfare audits, facilitate equivalency among packers, and minimize the need for multiple audits on a farm supplying multiple packers. The common foundation for the audit would be based on PQA Plus and TQA.

Industry Audit Task Force Purpose - Facilitate the development of a workable, credible and affordable on-farm verification system. Objectives –Provide stakeholders with a consistent, reliable and verifiable system that assures on-farm animal well-being and food safety –Eliminate duplication of audits and/or minimize the administrative burden placed on producers –Develop consensus about consistent standards between and among various independent audit programs. PQA Plus could be the foundation with possible company-specific addendums –Create a standard process that results in inter- and intra-observer consistency and protection of herd health

Common Swine Industry Audit

Audit materials – Audit instructions – Audit standards – Audit tool – Corrective Action template – Interactive audit tool spreadsheet FAQ’s Resources – PQA Plus & TQA – Fact sheets and other educational materials – SOP templates – Record templates Branding

Audit Instructions Scope –birth to transport from the farm –Animal welfare and food safety Auditing Instructions –Preface/objectives –Defining a site –Scheduling an Audit –Biosecurity –Animal sampling/selection –Conducting an audit –Scoring –Completing an audit/corrective action

Audit Standard – Animal Well-being Animals Willful Acts of Abuse Humane Euthanasia Animal Handling Space Allowance Body Condition Lameness Abscesses Deep Wounds Shoulder Sores Tail Biting Hernias Prolapses Scratches Vulva Injuries Thermal Comfort Mortality Management Facilities Air Quality Emergency Backup Ventilation Euthanasia Equipment Facilities Penning Flooring Chutes Alleyways Feeders Waterers Animal Cleanliness Caretakers Treatment Management Caretaker Training Daily Duties Euthanasia Piglet Processing Abuse Policy Abuse Reporting Records Testing Emergency Backup Equipment Euthanasia Plan Site Assessments Daily Observation Records Written SOPs Emergency Action Plan Mortality records = currently part of PQA Plus site assessment

Caretaker Participation Several audit questions,particularly those related to caretaker training, may require auditor to interview caretakers. Meant to be a conversational process by asking open-ended questions – What tasks are you responsible for each day? – What training did you receive to perform this task? – How do you perform this task? – When did this animal first receive treatment and how do you know? Non-English speakers – On-farm interpreter – Bilingual auditor

Critical Criteria Animal Welfare Category: Critical QuestionPossible Points Observation/ Comments 1. Were any willful acts of abuse observed during the audit?Pass/Fail 2. Are animals euthanized in a timely manner?Pass/Fail 3. If euthanasia is observed, are animals handled humanely during the process? Pass/Fail/”NO” 4. If euthanasia is observed, are animals euthanized in place or is suitable equipment available to move non-ambulatory animals so they can be humanely euthanized Pass/Fail/”NO” 5. If euthanasia is observed, do caretakers confirm insensibility and death after the euthanasia method is applied and before being removed from the facility? Pass/Fail/”NO”

Audit Tool Emphasis Category No. Questions Non-Breeding Possible Points No. Questions Breeding Possible Points Percent of Total Points Animal Welfare Critical 55 Animal/Benchmark % Caretaker % Facilities % Records % Transport/Load-out % Food Safety % Total Audit Question Point Values: 10, 5, 2 or 1

Audit Scoring Critical criteria = pass/fail All others = score for each question/all or nothing Presentation of benchmarks Total and Section cores Defining a passing score

Audits vs. Assessments Assessments Educational and benchmarking Measurement and feedback Completed by first or second party If I have recently completed a site assessment, will that count as an audit? – No Audits Objective snapshot in time No educational component Completed by a third party If I have recently completed a third-party audit, will that count as an assessment? – No

Questions About Implementation What happens if my farm fails an audit? What happens if I refuse to be audited? Do all farms have to be audited? How frequently will farms need to be audited? Who is paying for the audit to be completed? This will depend on the market where you sell your pigs. Buyers in the marketplace (i.e. packers) will be responsible for reviewing audit results and corrective actions to determine if their supplier has adequately resolved the identified issue or if the site requires a re-audit.

Next Steps and PQA Plus
