Abstract
Official controls are performed to ensure the verification of compliance with feed and food law, animal health and animal welfare rules. Frequency and broadness of official controls depend on size of slaughterhouse and proper risk analysis. Official controls are carried out by the competent authorities, Official Veterinarians. In this diploma thesis, we present data from official controls carried out in export slaughterhouse registered for even-toed and odd-toed animals slaughtering. Official controls in this slaughterhouse carry out once per month and during a 12-month period we identified some non-compliances. Non-compliances identified in slaughterhouse referred to: personnel hygiene, slaughter hygiene, meat manipulation hygiene, condemned meat and offal disposal. Personnel also showed lack of knowledge related to animal welfare rules and aversion to daily evidence fulfilment. Corrective measures and deadline for implementation were defined. Slaughterhouse successfully fulfilled all the requirements within demanded deadline.
