Halal Auditing

Our Comprehensive Auditing Services

ET Systems provides a range of auditing services to help certification bodies ensure their clients maintain Halal compliance.

Scheduled Periodic Audits

Regular surveillance audits conducted according to the certification body's schedule to verify ongoing compliance with Halal requirements. These can be conducted annually, bi-annually, or as required by your certification scheme.

Unannounced Audits

Surprise audits conducted without prior notice to verify that Halal compliance is consistently maintained, not just prepared for scheduled visits. These help ensure the integrity of the Halal certification.

Special Audits

Audits conducted in response to complaints, significant changes to the client's operations, or other situations that may affect Halal compliance. These help address specific concerns promptly.

Pre-Certification Audits

Initial assessments of companies seeking Halal certification to evaluate readiness and identify any areas requiring improvement before formal certification.

Corrective Action Verification

Follow-up audits to verify that corrective actions have been effectively implemented to address previously identified non-conformities or issues.

Remote Auditing

Virtual audits conducted using technology to assess compliance when on-site visits are not feasible due to geographical constraints, health concerns, or other limitations.
