Audit results
A total of 30,138 regular audits were conducted in 2012 in the
Supply Chain Meat and Meat Products. 98 percent of them
were passed immediately. 610 scheme participants failed
their regular audit and will have to implement corrective
actions in order to receive QS approval. With 3.3 percent,
the proportion of K.O. evaluations in unannounced random
sample audits was only slightly higher than in the regular
audits. In audits of special purpose, on the other hand,
which are only conducted in cases of definite suspicion or in
incident or crisis situations, the share of K.O audits lay at 19
percent.
