Background
In order to streamline, unify and standardize its Halal certification procedure and operation all over India, Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind, the largest and the oldest Indian Muslims NGO, established Registered Trust named as Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind Halal Trust. It has a distinct & uniform Patented Halal logo, seal and standard certification format. It is accredited by JAKIM malaysia and its name appears on their website - www.halal.gov.my JUH has been certifying Halal food products including Food processing Industries, Non-food processing industries, abattoirs for long both for the domestic and overseas export markets across the globe. For e.g. Middle East, Malaysia, Africa and other Muslim countries. In fact it was the only Halal certification authority in India, acceptable to the importer clients, suppliers and the Muslim consumers at large due to its wide spread network, high reputation and religious credibility and integrity. Since the abattoirs and factories engaged in processing and export of food products are widely spread apart by thousands of miles from north to south and west to east Halal certification was carried out by its most conveniently located state and district units in Delhi, Mumbai, U.P. and Hyderabad under overall monitoring and control JUH central office in New Delhi. In order to make the industrialist capitalize best on Halal Certification Services, Jamiat Halal Trust implemented a patented logo replacing the certificates issued by various state and district units which used slightly varying logo, name, style spelling, seals and formats. Earlier it lead to apprehension that unscrupulous elements could exploit the loophole for self-aggrandizement. Therefore Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind, has now created a public charitable Trust.

Impartiality
Being impartial is important, but being perceived to be impartial is as much important. This perception of impartiality is established by gathering objective evidence and making decision on the basis of these objective evidences. Impartiality is also ensured by disallowing involvement of any auditor or technical committee member in the process of audit and certification of any client with whom the officer has close relationship, familiarity or business interactions.
Statement Of Impartiality
JUHHT understands the importance of avoiding conflict of interest and ensuring complete impartiality in the auditing and certification process
At JUHHT we ensure Impartiality by -
Analysing, identifying and documenting possible situations of partiality and conflict of interest, and by taking appropriate action to eliminate or neutralize these possibilities.
Educating certification personnel about avoiding possible issues that might affect impartiality
Legally binding certification personnel to disclose relevant information regarding issues that may lead to possibilities of conflict of interest
Ensuring objectivity of the certification process by using only competent personnel
Establishing an independent Committee for safeguarding impartiality (Impartiality committee) to monitor and enforce impartiality in audit and certification process.

Chairman
Committee for safeguarding Impartiality
To look after matters related to Credibility and Impartiality of the Auditing and Certification process, a separate Committee for Safeguarding Impartiality has been established by the Chairman. To ensure impartiality in the structure and functioning of the committee, all members are selected from outside the Certification Body. These professionals represent different stakeholders, who have interest in impartial audit and certification process. Infringement in audit and certification process, if any, is noted and appropriate corrective and preventive action is taken. If JUHHT does not take satisfactory action the Impartiality committee is authorized to raise the issue before regulatory authorities.
