Health Canada's Increased Scrutiny on Compliance

With recent news surrounding cannabis licence suspensions as a result
of non-compliance with Health Canada regulations, it has become clear that enforcement measures will likely increase over the next several months
as a higher level of scrutiny is applied to the industry.
Following a thorough investigation, federal regulators listed several operational changes that the firm could implement, which would address the various public health and safety risks that contributed to Health Canada’s partial suspension. This included:

  • Controlling flow of cannabis and cannabis products throughout the facility
  • Ensuring the production, storage and distribution in authorized areas
  • Improving employees’ knowledge and compliance with the law
  •  Developing better record-keeping and inventory tracking capabilities

At AAPS we have direct experience assisting companies in creating a culture of quality and compliance, we strongly believe both are integral to avoid costly non-compliance issues. AAPS has assisted companies to:

  • Create Customized Quality Management Systems
  • Perform Gap analysis
  • Organize Operational Review and Risk Assessment of Regulatory Action
  • Conduct QA Management and Employee Training
  • Develop SOP and Training Programs
