Summary:If the hazard analysis is not done correctly and the hazards warranting control within the Food Safety System are not identified, the plan will not be effective regardless of how well it is followed. In practice, the process of conducting a hazard analysis typically involves two stages. The first, hazard identification, based on risk of illness or injury, can be regarded as a brain storming session. In stage two of the hazard analysis, the food safety team decides which potential hazards must be addressed in the Food Safety Plan. The Food Safety System includes management education and support, setting a food safety culture, preliminary food safety training, the establishment and maintenance of good manufacturing practices (GMPs), the use of preventive controls qualified individuals (PCQIs), operating the plan to ensure it is working, and making adjustments to the plan as needed. After the list of potential hazards is assembled, stage two, the hazard evaluation, is conducted.
