Tracking

Tracking includes the following sub processes:

• Establish routines for traceability, recall and withdrawal
• Recall / withdrawal of a product

Areas affected by, and subject to guidelines for STAND are:

• Background to the guidelines, what is the goal, and who is the target audience
• Laws and regulations underlying the guidelines and how they are legally rooted
• What requirements exist for traceability, traceability information and labelling, and the product areas for which the guidelines apply
• How can internal routines for recall / withdrawal be established
• What actions can be taken if an unwanted event or crisis should occur and how a product can be traced in the value chain

The guidelines are to be understood as recommendations that actors must bilaterally agree on whether to be followed or not.
