HACCP Exam

HACCP focuses on which five processes? Hazard Analysis, Critical Control Points, Critical Limits, Monitoring, Corrective Actions

Critical limit The maximum or minimum value to which any biological, chemical, or physical parameter must be controlled to significantly minimize a hazard requiring a process control.
_____ monitoring is preferred. Continuous
_____ records are generated only when a limit is not met (eg. cooler records when temp goes above a set limit). Exception
Corrective action Must be taken when process preventive controls are not properly implemented.
What must corrective actions accomplish? Identify and correct problem with implementation, reduce likelihood of occurrence, evaluate affected product for safety, prevent affected food from entering commerce.
What two parties are excluded from supply-chain preventive controls? Importers with foreign supplier compliance, food supplied for research or evaluation use.
What are the supply-chain program general requirements? Use approved suppliers, determine supplier verification activities, conduct/document supplier verification activities, third party audit when applicable.
What are considered appropriate supplier verification activities? Onsite audit, sampling and testing.

T or F: A documented onsite audit must be performed before using the raw material. True
Auditing should be completed _____. annually
T or F: Supply-chain sampling and testing can be conducted by the supploer. True
Name three types of supply-chain verification activities. Records reviews, requesting certificates of conformance, requesting continuing guarantees.
T or F: Records of actions taken for non-conformance are not required. False
What is the difference between verification and validation? Validation aquires technical evidence that a hazard us being controlled, whereas verification describes the application of methods, procedures, tests, and evaluations.
T or F: A food safety plan reanalysis is a type of system verification. True
T or F: Validation must be performed or overseen by a preventive controls qualified individual. True
Validation must be completed when? Before the plan is implemented or within the 90 days of production, or within a reasonable time frame as determined by preventive controls qualified individual, when a control measure is changed.
T or F: Food allergen, sanitation, supply chain, and recall plan preventive controls do not need to be validated. True
_____ demonstrates that the food safety plan is consistently being implemented as written. Verification
Verification includes what? Calibration of processing monitoring instruments, records review.
Environmental monitoring applies to ____ food exposed to the environment. RTE
A food safety plan must be reanalyzed when? At least every 3 years, with a significant change in product or processes, when new information becomes available about potential hazards, with an unanticipated problem, when a preventive control is ineffective.
What are the different implementation records? Preventive control monitoring data, corrective actions taen, verification activities, validation documents, supply-chain implementation, applicable training.
Required records must be retained at least ____ years. two
T or F: Electronic records can be considered onsite if they can be accessed onsite. True
Records can be stored offsite if they are accessible within ____. 24 hours
T or F: Class III recalls are the most serious. False
What are the common elements of a recall plan? Defined roles and responsibilities, contact lists, lot identification and verification info, effectiveness check procedures, product disposition procedures.
What are the regulatory agencies that must be informed in a recall? FDA, state recall coordinator
