HACCP Plan
Introduction:

Food safety is a very important quality criterion in the catering trade. Most
food-related illnesses that occur in catering can be traced back to
microbiological contamination. However, chemical residues and foreign bodies
in foods can also present a danger. The Hazard Analysis and Critical Control
Point (HACCP) plan is a plan for the systematic identification, evaluation and
monitoring of microbiological, chemical and physical hazards connected with
food preparation, sale and consumption. By monitoring Critical Control
Points (CCPs), this plan makes it possible to meet the strict requirements of
microbiological safety that apply to all of the processes connected with it.

Aim and purpose:

The aim of the HACCP plan is to produce foods in guaranteed, controlled


conditions. To do so, specifications, limits, and approximate values at set
points have to be defined, and quality controls carried out at these points. In
this way, non-conformities can be systematically detected and identified. The
potential causes of non-conformities can be analysed, and important process
characteristics become apparent.

Implementation:

The plan is based on seven principles by means of which it is implemented


logically:
1

Evaluation of risks associated with food preparation, sale and


consumption

Identification of the CCPs necessary to monitor the hazards


identified

Identification of the critical limits (criteria) to be conformed to at


each CCP

Identification of procedures for monitoring the CCPs

Identification of corrective measures introduced when a deviation is


identified during the monitoring of a CCP

Setting up of a system to efficiently control the paperwork


documenting the HACCP plan

Identification of procedures to verify the correct implementation of


the HACCP system

HACCP PLAN

QMDP:

HACCP Plan
1.

Identification of the hazards and evaluation of the risks associated with the preparation,
production, sale and distribution of foods of all types.
- Hazard
Unacceptable growth, contamination by or growth of micro-organisms, or unacceptable contamination
with chemical or physical substances which may impair food safety and place the health of the
consumer at an unacceptable risk.
- Risk
Assessment of the possible occurrence of a hazard or danger.
- Potentially high-risk foods
Foods consisting wholly or partly of milk or milk products, eggs, meat, poultry, fish, shell-fish or
other ingredients, including synthetic, which facilitate the rapid growth of pathogenic microorganisms. This does not include food with a pH of 4.6 or an aw value of 0.85.
The hazard analysis is a guide to safe product development, the identification of critical control
points, and the monitoring of pathogenic micro-organisms at any point in the production process.
The hazard assessment involves evaluating the food according to its hazard characteristics with
reference to:
- whether the product contains microbiologically sensitive ingredients,
- whether the process involves pasteurisation/sterilisation,
- whether there is a possibility of the food being mistreated during handling, transport or preparation
in such a way as to make it hazardous to consume,
- whether the product is heat-treated after packaging (after being ready-prepared) or while it is being
prepared for consumption.
The classification according to these four characteristics gives the risk assessment.

2.

Identification of the Critical Control Points (CCPs) necessary to monitor the hazardidentified
- Critical Control Point = CCP
A process, procedure or piece of equipment, the monitoring/control of which eliminates or minimises
a hazard.
Critical control points must be established where they can be monitored. They are set up at those
points in the production process at which pathogenic micro-organisms have to be destroyed or
monitored. A CCP must be carefully described and documented.

HACCP Plan
3.

Identification of the critical limits/criteria to be conformed to at each CCP identified


- Critical limit/criterion
One or more set limits which must be conformed to in order to guarantee that a microbiological
hazard is being monitored effectively by the CCP.
There can be more than one critical limit for a CCP. If a deviation from the limit occurs, the CCP is
out of control and there is a potential hazard. The criteria most frequently used for critical limits are
as follows:
- temperature
- time
- pH
- water activity aw
All the criteria are clearly documented and specified. Tolerances are stated where necessary. The
range of criteria is based on a cost-to-benefit analysis and must satisfy the requirements of effective
quality assurance.

4.

Identification and introduction of procedures for monitoring all Critical Control Points to check
that they are under control.
- Monitoring and evaluation
Planned inspection of whether the process at each CCP is running correctly and is under control. This
means the systematic observation, measurement and/or documentation of the limits.
- Deviation
Non-conformity with a necessary critical limit at a CCP.
In terms of monitoring, a critical non-conformity has occurred if a CCP is not under control. As part
of the monitoring, any deviation from limits set must be detected promptly, before the product is
served.
The most important monitoring methods are:
- visual inspection
- sensory evaluation
- microbiological examination
- inspection of physical values
- chemical examination

5.

Identification of corrective measures which have to be introduced when a deviation (exceeding of


the limits) is identified by monitoring a CCP.

6.

Setting up of a system to efficiently control the paperwork documenting the HACCP plan.

HACCP Plan
7.

Identification of procedures to verify the correct implementation of the HACCP system in


conformity with the plan.
- Verification = confirmation
Verification consists of methods, procedures and tests used to establish that the HACCP system
conforms to the HACCP plan. Verification confirms that all of the hazards were identified in the
HACCP plan when it was drawn up. The verification methods include a physical, chemical, sensory
and microbiological examination of the specified criteria, where these have been established.

The principle of First In First Out applies.


All storage areas/cold rooms must be clean, dry, easy to clean and
clearly arranged.
Any pests must be combated thoroughly and routinely.
All cold-storage facilities in which food is stored overnight must be
temperature-controlled. The temperatures must be kept stable.
Foods must not be stored at ground level.
Strong-smelling foods must either be stored separately or packaged in
such a way that they cannot affect other products.
Tins with bulging tops or bottoms must be screened out and destroyed
immediately.
All damaged packaging/cans must be screened out or repackaged.
All open foods must be stored covered and labelled with the date of
manufacture.
Foods which give an expiry date must be consumed before this date.
No foods past their expiry date must be served to customers.
The guidelines for frozen foods apply to frozen products.
If home-made products are frozen, these must be labelled with:
* Contents
* Date of freezing
All frozen products must be stored in their packaging.
Freezer temperatures are not regarded as a source of microbiological
danger; however, they must be monitored regularly and conform to the
approximate figure of -18 C.

Time limit:
The maximum time between two stages of a process.
The production time is broken down as follows:
1. Kitchen preparation time:
Period between initial kitchen preparation and readiness.
This should be as short as possible and starts at the initial preparation in the
kitchen (e.g. cutting, whipping).
2. Pre-production time:
Period between readiness and planned serving.
The readiness time is set by the company with reference to
- the product characteristics
- the later consumption time in such a way that perfect quality (hygiene,
sensory characteristics) is guaranteed, and the actual pre-production time lies
within the max. pre-production time specified.
