  2. Why Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP)? • To prevent foodborne illness in North Carolina schools. • Foodborne illness • Caused by eating contaminated foods or beverages  • Each year there are: • 48 million cases of foodborne illness • 128,000 hospitalizations • 3,000 deaths - in -

  3. Food-as-foe Mason Jones Dec. 24, 1999 - Oct. 6, 2005 Brianna Kriefall 3 year old

  4. What makes us ill? • Chicken • Meats • Ground meats • Fin fish • Shellfish (Consumers response, Environics, 2005) • Produce • Poultry • Beef • Eggs • Seafood (CDC, 2009)

  5. What causes foodborne illness? • Food from unsafe source • Inadequate cooking • Improper holding temperature • Contaminated equipment • Poor personal hygiene • Who is at risk? • Infants • Toddlers • Elderly • Pregnant women • Immunocompromised • Taking specific medications

  6. What food causes illness? • Any food can cause foodborne illness • Even non-time/temperature control for safety foods • Characteristics of a time/temperature control for safety (TCS) food: • Low acid • Moist • Contains protein • Keep time/temperature control for safety food out of the temperature danger zone!

  7. Temperature danger zone • When food is in this temperature range, harmful bacteria can grow, multiply, and possibly cause infection • Bacteria can double in number in as little as 20 minutes

  8. Cross contamination • Bacteria can be transferred from one food to another if food is not properly stored • Store raw food below cooked or ready-to-eat food • Properly cover foods Ready To Eat foods Leftover foods Whole fish, beef, and pork Ground meats and fish Whole and ground poultry

  9. Employee Policies

  10. Basics of handwashing • Wet hands with arm water • Apply hand soap • Antibacterial liquid, powder, or bar • Scrub for at least 10-15 seconds, while cleaning under fingernails and between fingers • Rinse thoroughly under warm running water • Dry with a single-use paper towel or warm-air hand dryer • Use paper towel to turn off the water faucet and to open the bathroom door when returning to work

  11. When to wash hands • After using the bathroom • After coughing, sneezing, smoking, eating, drinking or touching body • Before putting on gloves • After any clean up activity • After handling garbage or trash • Do not handle food with bare hands if you have a sore that contains pus or that is infected • Cover affected area with a bandage, a finger cot, and then a single-use glove

  12. Employee policies • Uniform policy • Closed/steel toed boots • Back braces • Gloves • Hair and nails trimmed

  13. Reporting foodborne illness • If you have been diagnosed with one of the following foodborne illnesses, report it to your manager: • Hepatitis A virus • E. coli O157:H7 • Salmonella Typhi • Shigella spp. • Norovirus

  14. Thermometers

  15. Thermometers

  16. Checking your thermometer • Check the accuracy of all thermometers: • Monthly • For calibration, prepare in advance • Purchase ice and store in cooler • Container to hold ice • If not correct, calibrate

  17. Calibration Boiling water method Ice-point method

  18. Cleaning and sanitizing thermometers • The probe or stem of a thermometer must be cleaned and sanitized before it is used • If only measuring the temperature of ready-to-eat food, the probe or stem only needs to be cleaned between uses

  19. Facility and Storage Preventing cross contaminationControlling time and temperature

  20. Temperature of storage units • Refrigeration • Must keep food at 41°F or colder • Air temperature should be 39°F or colder • Freezer • Must keep food at 0°F or colder • Air temperature should be 0°F or colder • Keep floors dry and clean • Dry storage • Best if temperature is between 50°F and 70°F • Humidity level should be between 50% and 60%

  21. First In, First Out (FIFO) • FIFO ensures proper rotation of foods in storage • When foods are received, put the oldest in the front and the newest in the back • Past-dated foods will lose their quality and sometimes become unsafe • Inventory cycle

  22. Storage layout and cleaning • Cleaning is the process of removing food and other soils • Maintaining an unobstructed 12-18 inch distance from walls to pallets • Food products stored off floor by 6 inches or on pallets • Pick up debris and sweep floors • Broken pallets, plastic wrap, etc

  23. Are these acceptable?

  24. How about this can? Choose a can that has these features: Flat ends which curve slightly inwards Undented seams Straight sides

  25. Cross-contamination in storage • Bacteria can be transferred from one food to another if food is not properly stored • Store raw food below cooked or ready-to-eat food • Properly cover foods

  26. Salvaged items • Providing a separate and labeled storage area for salvaged items • To be taken to Food Bank if possible • Implementing procedures for handling and removal of salvaged, expired, damaged, or contaminated foods • Disposition of these food items must also be documented

  27. Storage of cleaning chemicals • Improperly stored chemicals can possibly contaminate food • Store separate from food, equipment, utensils, linen, and single-service and single-use items

  28. Material safety data sheets • Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for all chemicals • On every MSDS, be familiar with the following sections: • 4.0 Fire and explosion data • 5.0 Reactivity data • 6.0 Spill or leak procedures • 7.0 Health hazard data • 8.0 First aid • 9.0 Protective measures • 10.0 Additional information/precautions

  29. Integrated Pest Management

  30. Pest management • Exclusion • Deny pests access to: • Food • Shelter • Dumpsters and Recycling Area • Keep area clean • Locate dumpsters away from doors • Keep lids closed • Use trashcan liners • Empty and clean trash frequently

  31. Pest management • Insecticide application • Leave the job to the professionals • Avoid contaminating food • Use baits for ants and cockroaches • Traps and baits • Use for insects and rodents • Check rodent traps daily • Leave rodent baiting to outdoor areas and to the professionals

  32. FIFO FIRST IN FIRST OUT Pest management • Inspect and date all deliveries • Discard or return infested or expired products • Clean up spills as soon as possible

  33. Label and MSDS

  34. Record keeping • Keep track of pest problems and measures taken to correct those problems

  35. Receiving Purchasing from approved, reputable suppliers

  36. Receiving • Check delivery schedule • Reconcile the amount of product received with the amount of product ordered • Spot check delivery vehicles for cleanliness and proper temperature control • Condition of delivery vehicle • Clean, good repair, proper temperature, no insects, no rodent droppings, and no meat juices on the floor

  37. Receiving • Organize storage space before deliveries • Inspect food items to minimize the risk for foodborne illness and liability • Insert a food thermometer between 2 packaged products to check the temperature • Check dates of perishable goods • Mark with date arrival or use by date • Inspecting deliveries for • Tampering, discoloration, pinholes, leakage • Unusual packages • Contamination (rodent activity or insects) • Proper temperatures (receiving log)

  38. Receiving • Unloading food items • Frozen first, refrigerated second, and dry goods last • Substandard food items (Rejection policy) • A record should be kept of rejected food items • Photos should be taken if necessary

  39. Temperature danger zone • Temperature danger zone • When food is in the temperature danger zone, harmful bacteria can grow, multiply, and possibly cause infection • Bacteria can double in number in as little as 20 minutes

  40. Criteria for Accepting or Rejecting a Food Delivery

  41. Shipping

  42. Pre loading process • Check to make sure truck is clean and remove any debris • Turn on cooler at least 45 minutes • Items to be loaded are sorted and staged

  43. Loading • Wheels are chocked • Dry products first followed by refrigerated and then frozen items • Load to minimize damage and movement during transportation

  44. Unloading • Travel time with/without refrigeration (temperature) • Multi-stop delivery process • Kitchen staff available to receive product • Unload with hand trucks • Store all product in appropriate location to prevent cross contamination

  45. Catering • Prepared food is handled to minimize contamination during transportation • Vehicles shall be maintained in a clean, sanitary condition • Temperature monitoring • Cold foods cold <41°F, Hot foods hot >135°F • Food in transit must be protected from contamination and must meet the temperature requirements noted above • Proper storage at location

  46. Power Outage Preventing cross contaminationControlling time and temperature

  47. Refrigerators • Note the time the outage occurred • Food should be safe as long as the power is out no more than about 4 to 6 hours. • Leave the door closed • When open needed cold air escapes, allowing the foods inside to reach unsafe temperatures

  48. Freezers • Leave the freezer door closed • With the door closed, food in most freezers will stay below 41°F for up to 3 days • Full freezer should keep food safe about 2 days • Half-full freezer, about 1 day • You can safely re-freeze thawed foods that still contain ice crystals and are 41°F or less

  49. Thawing • Freezing does not kill microorganisms, but it does slow their growth • During a power outage, frozen food can begin to thaw, resulting in the outer surface warming up and allowing harmful microorganisms to grow • The time it takes for food to thaw depends on: • Amount of food in the freezer • Kind of food • Temperature of the food • Size and insulation of freezer

  50. When in doubt, throw it out! • If it appears the power will be off for more than 6 hours • Ice, dry ice, or frozen gel packs may be used to keep TCS foods at 41°F or below • Moving refrigerated food to a walk-in freezer or obtaining a refrigerated truck are other options to keep food safe • Food should not be transferred to private homes
