Australian processors worked with government, scientists and the RSPCA to develop standards and guidelines
Australian cattle and sheep are ethically and humanely processed to the strict industry standards and guidelines.
The Australian processing sector worked with government, scientists, animal welfare organisation RSPCA, and technical experts to contribute to the development of the standards and guidelines to meet the requirements of good animal welfare.
The Standards help fulfil the expectations of both the Australian meat processing industry and the community of high levels of animal welfare management at Australian livestock processing establishments. The Standards include the provisions of Australia’s current minimum regulated animal welfare standards at processing and also international and commercial requirements.
