Resumen
Descripción
Hazard analysis and critical control point (HACCP) consists of seven principles and is typically described in 12 successive steps. This guidance document provides information on how to establish corrective actions (Step 10 / Principle 5) for each Critical control point (CCP) to respond effectively to deviations when they occur in order to develop an effective HACCP system in accordance with the Codex Alimentarius General Principles of Food Hygiene (CXC 1-1969).
Specific written corrective actions should be developed for each CCP in the HACCP system to respond effectively to deviations when they occur. Products affected by a deviation are potentially unsafe. The corrective actions taken when a deviation occurs should ensure that control of the CCP and the process has been restored. The corrective action should address what happens to all potentially unsafe products. A root cause analysis should be conducted where possible to identify and correct the source of the deviation in order to minimize the possibility of such a deviation occurring again. Details of the corrective actions, including the cause of the deviation and the procedures to deal with the affected product, should be documented in the HACCP records and reviewed periodically to identify trends.
This publication is part of the FAO Good Hygiene Practices (GHP) and Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) Toolbox for Food Safety series. The toolbox is a central repository of practical guidance and resource materials to strengthen food safety capacities, both public and private, in order to develop and implement food safety management programmes in accordance with the Codex standards.
Care was taken to consider the challenges faced by small food business operators and primary producers in low- and middle-income countries, and those with an institutional role, such as government officials, academia and capacity building organizations.
