Control Requirements for Pre-Packaging, E-Marking and The Average Weights System
Can the staff who control and sample your filling lines:
- Control overfill and still comply with the average weights requirements?
- Calculate and apply the T1 and T2 values for your filling processes?
- Interpret the printouts from your weight analysers or checkweighers?
- Understand the significance of e-marking products?
- Explain why you check-weigh samples of your product hourly or half-hourly?
- Outline the implications of not complying with the Average Weights System?
If the answer to any of these questions is “No”, perhaps your Company our half-day training programme.
