Well I know that Risk Assessment has been discussed so many times and especially in the BRC section.
My main goal in this thread is trying to figure out how to develop and establish a practical risk assessment, not only for me but for future questionnaires along this subject addressing the majority of the BRC requirements. I went through the entire audit and their is a total of 20 clauses that mention risk assessment (WOW). Below is a list of clauses and their sections:
3.6.1 Supplier Approval
4.2.3 Security
4.4.2 Utilites
4.6.2 Maintenance
4.7.1 Staff facilities
4.8.1 Chemical and physical control
4.8.4.1 Glass Brittle and Hard Plastic
4.11.2 Pest Control
4.12.1 Storage and Transportation
5.2.1.1 Material Containing Allergens
5.2.1.3 Material Containing Allergens
5.2.1.6 Material Containing Allergens
5.2.2.1 Identity and Preserved materials
5.5.11 Product Inspection
5.7.1 Product Release
6.3.2 Calibration and control of Monitering devices
7.3.2 Personnel and hygiene
7.3.4 Personnel and hygiene
7.5.4 Protective Clothing
7.5.7 Protective Clothing
I have four documented risk assessments in place already glass and brittle, supplier approval, and security (food defense) and HACCP. At first I wanted to make ONE risk assesment to complete the rest of the clauses in the BRC. But the more I think of it the more it seems difficult and not a good idea.
At the beginning I was also thinking of taking our company map(s) and assessing each area (wall to walls) at our plant. And within each area I would address all the clauses above.
For example: Packaging, I would perform a risk assessment on all of the clauses mentioned above (with the exception of supplier approval and HACCP) with respect to the packaging location. Then I will proceed to the processing areas and perform the same procedure.
Or as I mentioned before.... do I just complete the rest of the risk assessment by clauses (TOPICS / PROGRAMS). Technically I allready have four risk assesments based by program.

Would this be a good idea to set the hazard analysis this way? I would have a section for Pest Control, Utelities, Maintence, Staff Facilites, protective clothing ...... so on and so forth.
Yes I am a quality manager but I hate paperwork. My idea is practicality and with all this requirements the way you document things has to be simple and practicle.
Thanks in Advance!
