Abdul,

If you want to be a HACCP auditor or even just an independent 'advisor', I recommend you get accredited training.

With food/hygiene, the risks are too high for an untrained auditor to rely on a HACCP checklist form.

Check out these links for guidance (but I have not used them, I am not a HACCP auditor)

I agree with John. There are issues with food safety that are not normally dealt with in the training for a standard health and safety practitioner, such as infection/contamination issues, hand hygiene, etc. It is all too easy to get some of these wrong unless you have a suitable level of knowledge.
