TQCSI HACCP Code:2024 5.7: Verification

What does 5.7 require?

The HACCP plan is verified so the business is confident that food safety is assured and product specifications are met. Verification includes routine record reviews, responsible and proportionate laboratory testing of food (microbiological, and chemical where relevant), and a periodic re-examination of each HACCP plan, repeated whenever a significant change (new process, ingredient, product or equipment) could alter the hazards or controls; a periodic review is also due where the hazard analysis found no CCPs. Testing must give reasonable confidence that processes deliver safe food, must verify the use-by or best-before dates the business sets, and results are analysed and understood by management with any breach of a critical limit investigated; verification records and laboratory reports are retained, and control measure implementation is verified often enough to show the plan is working.
