The Compliance Specialist will work directly with the General Manager and Administrative Director to develop the SOPs. It must include the following:
• what is to be done, • how it is done, • how often, • by whom, • what recordings are required and • any immediate corrective action procedures to implement when there are any deficiencies. These SOPs can be used for training and as reference tools. There should be clear evidence that this system is being followed, based on SOPs reviewed. SOPs should follow the organizations document control systems, especially proper version management (see Control of Documents and Records).
Either the GM or the AD will provide the procedure that is currently being carried out that meets the policy.
If a food safety concern arises, the compliance specialist will provide advice on how to minimize the risk.
The GM will approve the new practice, which will be incorporated in the written food safety plan following procedures outline in Control of Documents and Records.
Subsequently, the GM or AD will train employees on the new policy immediately.
The new policies are incorporated into future food safety training as applicable.
If a new procedure is tested and doesn't work, another will be developed following this policy
