SUMMARY:HARPS workshops (WA)
DESCRIPTION:The Harmonised Australian Retailer Produce Scheme (HARPS) is a retailer-led scheme designed to assist compliance with food safety\, legal and trade legislation for suppliers to the major grocery retailers in Australia. The scheme has now been running for 18 months\, and over 900 businesses are now HARPS-approved. \nEstablished with the goal of providing a more practical and comprehensive approach\, HARPS has the ability to streamline the amount of work undertaken during the audit process. While the overall amount of time and resources saved will differ between businesses\, for those currently audited to multiple schemes for multiple customers\, transitioning to the use of one base scheme plus HARPS will mean a reduction in audit duration and potentially overall audit costs. \nNew information sessions have been announced to help increase industry understanding of the scheme: \n\nWanneroo (WA) (1) – Tuesday 22 May 2018\nWanneroo (WA) (2) – Tuesday 22 May 2018 (Vietnamese translation available at this session)\nCarnarvon (WA) – Wednesday 23 May 2018\nMildura (VIC) – Monday 28 May 2018\nRobinvale (VIC) – Tuesday 29 May 2018\nStanthorpe (QLD) – Tuesday 5 June 2018\nHARPS awareness webinar (including Q&A) – Monday 21 May 2018\n\nThese sessions will provide those who are already HARPS-approved with a refresher on the program and help those not currently involved with HARPS get an understanding about what it will mean for their business. They will cover essential details\, including: \n\nWhat is HARPS?\nDoes your business require HARPS approval?\nHow to implement HARPS?\nHow to register your interest in HARPS and what are the timelines?\nWhat additional support and guidance is available?\n\nThere will also be the opportunity to ask questions about HARPS. \nGrowers who can’t make it to one of those workshops can also refer to a new factsheet on HARPS which is designed to answer some of the most frequently asked questions about the scheme. More information about HARPS can be found on the HARPS website.

DESCRIPTION:The Harmonised Australian Retailer Produce Scheme (HARPS) is a retailer-led scheme designed to assist compliance with food safety\, legal and trade legislation for suppliers to the major grocery retailers in Australia. The scheme has now been running for 18 months\, and over 900 businesses are now HARPS-approved. \nEstablished with the goal of providing a more practical and comprehensive approach\, HARPS has the ability to streamline the amount of work undertaken during the audit process. While the overall amount of time and resources saved will differ between businesses\, for those currently audited to multiple schemes for multiple customers\, transitioning to the use of one base scheme plus HARPS will mean a reduction in audit duration and potentially overall audit costs. \nNew information sessions have been announced to help increase industry understanding of the scheme: \n\nWanneroo (WA) (1) – Tuesday 22 May 2018\nWanneroo (WA) (2) – Tuesday 22 May 2018 (Vietnamese translation available at this session)\nCarnarvon (WA) – Wednesday 23 May 2018\nMildura (VIC) – Monday 28 May 2018\nRobinvale (VIC) – Tuesday 29 May 2018\nStanthorpe (QLD) – Tuesday 5 June 2018\nHARPS awareness webinar (including Q&A) – Monday 21 May 2018\n\nThese sessions will provide those who are already HARPS-approved with a refresher on the program and help those not currently involved with HARPS get an understanding about what it will mean for their business. They will cover essential details\, including: \n\nWhat is HARPS?\nDoes your business require HARPS approval?\nHow to implement HARPS?\nHow to register your interest in HARPS and what are the timelines?\nWhat additional support and guidance is available?\n\nThere will also be the opportunity to ask questions about HARPS. \nGrowers who can’t make it to one of those workshops can also refer to a new factsheet on HARPS which is designed to answer some of the most frequently asked questions about the scheme. More information about HARPS can be found on the HARPS website.

SUMMARY:Process mapping training (Leongatha)
DESCRIPTION:Process mapping is the act of defining the jobs done as part of your growing operation\, who in your operation is responsible for each jobs\, how jobs need to be completed and how you can gauge the success of each job being completed. \nBy sitting down and mapping out your processes from start to finish\, you can get a more thorough understanding of how each job contributes to the overall success of your business. \nImportantly\, process mapping can also help you properly assess how each job is done in your operation and find ways of doing it more effectively and more efficiently. \nBy mapping out each job and defining standard operating procedures (or SOPs)\, you can help to ensure that every task is done in the same way and to the same standard\, and you can more easily look for ways to improve the work done on your farm – improving your efficiency and saving you money. \nAs part of the levy-funded VegNET project being delivered in Gippsland\, the East Gippsland Food Cluster is offering free expert training in process mapping for vegetable growers and other industry members who are eager to improve their business practices and increase the efficiency of their work. \nThis half-day session includes morning tea and opportunities to network with other vegetable growers and local suppliers. \nTo register for this great opportunity to learn how to remove costs from your business\, get in touch with Industry Development Officer Shayne Hyman on 0417 330 081\, or e-mail shayne.hyman@eastgippslandfoodcluster.com.au.
