  1. Module 4.7 Determine CriticalControl Points(Task 7 / Principle 2)

  2. Objectives To enable trainees to distinguish critical control points (CCPs) Contents Introducing the decision tree for determination of CCPs Applying the decision tree Documenting the CCPs in the HACCP plan Objectives and contents Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  3. The determination of CCPs can be facilitated by applying a decision tree (included in Codex Guidelines) What is a CCP? Critical Control Point A step at which control can be applied and is essential to prevent or eliminate a food safety hazard or reduce it to an acceptable level Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  4. Comprises four systematic questions to objectively assess whether a CCP is required at a specific step in the process Application of the decision tree must be flexible according to the type of operation Decision tree might not be applicable to all situations When a process is modified, the decision tree must be re-applied CCP decision tree Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  5. Review hazards identified on HACCP Forms 5, 6 and 7 Indicate which hazards are fully controlled by existing hygiene measures Remaining hazards will be examined to determine whether they give rise to a CCP or not What hazards are included in theHACCP plan? Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  6. Do control measures exist? If YES then record measure and go to Question 2 If NO then Indicate how the hazard will be controlled before or after the manufacturing process, OR Re-design process This could be an end-user or producer / supplier function Question 1 of the decision tree Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  7. Is the step specifically designed to eliminate or reduce hazard to ‘acceptable levels’? If YES then it is a CCP If NO then go to Question 3 This applies to processing steps only NOT to incoming materials as delivered ‘Acceptable levels’ need to be defined within the HACCP plan Question 2 of the decision tree Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  8. Could contamination with the identified hazard occur in excess of acceptable levels or increase to unacceptable levels? If YES then go to Question 4 If NO then it is not a CCP This is a judgment based on information gathered during the HACCP study Record basis for judgment on HACCP Form 8 Question 3 of the decision tree Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  9. Will subsequent step eliminate the hazard or reduce it to acceptable level? If YES then this step is not CCP If NO then this step is a CCP CCPs are indicated in final column of HACCP Form 8 (e.g. CCP1 (BC)) Question 4 of the decision tree Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  10. Form 8 – materials as delivered(example of boia) Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  11. Form 8 –process steps (example of biological hazards in boia) Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  12. Once all hazards have been analysed, indicate on Forms 5, 6 and 7 where the hazards are controlled Where hazards are controlled by GMP / GHP indicate the specific programme Hazards not controlled by the operator require further attention Control measures Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  13. Examination of hazards not controlled by the operator Determine whether control measure can be established If YES, identify measure and review Form 8 Report hazard on Form 9 and indicate how these could be addressed outside of the process Unaddressed hazards Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  14. Unaddressed hazards - Form 9 Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)

  15. What are critical control points? Applying the decision tree to determine critical control points Documenting the CCPs Next module: Establishing critical limits Summary Module 4.7 – Determine CriticalControl Points (Task 7 / Principle 2)
