ISO/TR 24475:2010 — Cosmetics — Good Manufacturing Practices — General training document. A Technical Report intended to support the training of personnel in cosmetic production plants and to complement the implementation of ISO 22716 (Good Manufacturing Practices for cosmetics).

Abstract

This technical report is aimed at contributing to the training of personnel in cosmetic production plants in the context of introducing Good Manufacturing Practices. It is intended as a complement to ISO 22716 and addresses quality aspects of cosmetic products; it does not cover personnel safety, environmental protection, or the safety and efficacy assessment of finished products. ISO/TR 24475:2010 is not a standalone normative standard and assumes prior knowledge of ISO 22716.

Scope

ISO/TR 24475:2010 provides a general training document to help implement Good Manufacturing Practices in cosmetics production facilities. Its scope is educational: to explain GMP concepts and support personnel training for quality-related activities in production, control, storage and shipment as described in ISO 22716. The report explicitly excludes requirements or guidance on worker safety, environmental protection and the toxicological/safety or efficacy evaluation of finished cosmetic products. It is intended to be used alongside ISO 22716 rather than as a replacement.

Key topics and requirements

• Overview of Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) principles for cosmetics and their role in assuring product quality.
• Training objectives and suggested content for personnel involved in production, quality control and related activities.
• Clarification that the document complements ISO 22716 and does not introduce additional normative requirements.
• Emphasis on personnel responsibilities, competency and awareness relevant to cosmetic quality.
• Coverage limited to quality aspects (production, control, storage, shipment); excludes personnel safety, environmental protection and product safety/efficacy assessment.
• Guidance-style material suitable for use as part of in-house training programmes or as a reference for trainers and quality teams.

Summary based on the ISO technical report text and its cross-reference to ISO 22716.

Typical use and users

Typical users include cosmetics manufacturers (production and QC teams), quality and regulatory managers, in-house and external trainers, auditors and consultants who implement or teach GMP for cosmetics, and national bodies adopting GMP guidance. The report is used as a training/reference document to explain and illustrate the GMP concepts in ISO 22716 rather than to set new requirements.
