Codex General Principles of Food Hygiene (CXC 1-1969, Rev. 2022) 19.10: 19.10 Step 10 / Principle 5: Establish corrective actions

Specific written corrective actions are developed for each CCP. When a deviation occurs, product made during it (with continuous monitoring) or product that may have been affected (without) is identified; corrective actions bring the CCP back under control and make sure potentially unsafe food is dealt with properly and never reaches consumers, by segregating it and analysing its safety to decide disposition (reprocessing such as pasteurizing, diversion to another use, or destruction), with external experts where needed. A root cause analysis is done where possible to prevent recurrence and to confirm the amount of product affected. Corrective action details, including cause and product disposition, are documented in the HACCP records, and corrective actions are reviewed periodically for trends and effectiveness.

What else in your programme already covers this

This control maps to 2 controls across 1 other frameworks. If you already hold one of them, the evidence you collected for it is the starting point here rather than new work.

  • 8.9.4 Handling of potentially unsafe products

Every mapping shown was judged rather than inferred from wording similarity, and the ones that failed review are published too. See the coverage reports and what was rejected.
