40
Q

7 HACCP Principles

A

.1. Conduct hazard analysis
2. Identify Critical Control Points
3. Establish Critical Limits
4. Establish monitoring procedures
5. Establish corrective actions
6. Establish documentation procedures
7. Establish verification procedures

41
Q

What is done in Conduct Hazard Analysis

A

Assess likelihood of occurrence and
resulting severity of hazards that are likely to be present in PHF/TCS (served whole or an ingredient)

Hazards: chemical, physical, biological
Presence: flow of food

42
Q

What is done in Identify critical control points (CCPs)

A

-Point at which loss of control may result to an unacceptable health risk

-Point in the flow of food where preventive measure can be applied to control (eliminate, prevent, lessen) the identified hazards

-In retail est.: cooking, cooling, reheating, and
holding (hot or cold)

43
Q

What is done in Establish critical limits (for each CCP)

A

-Standards ( time, temperature, viscosity, level of acidity, level of additive or ingredient, pH, sensory observation) that must be met to keep a food item safe

-Critical limits: measurable, based from facts, right for the recipe

44
Q

What is done in Establish monitoring procedures

A

-check if the limits are
being met

-Monitoring= planned observations
showing that the CCP is under
control, evidenced by an accurate
record of the event

-Settle on these 4 aspects: what, when, how and who of monitoring

45
Q

What is done in Establish corrective actions

A

-Planned & Written procedures to be followed when a deviation or failure to meet a critical limit occurs

  1. Identify, isolate and hold affected
    products for safety evaluation
  2. Reprocess, otherwise convert to
    another safe product
  3. If safety is compromised: reject or destroy
  4. Make a report of the corrective
    action taken, showing signatures
    of responsible persons
45
Q

What is done in Establish verification procedures

    procedures, tests and audits to validate and determine compliance with the HACCP plan

Example: audits

45
Q

What is done in Establish documentation procedures
