Hi,
We just finished our first facility audit (recommended for Level 2 certification w/ 89%) WOOHOO! One of the OFI's received as follows:
13.7.3.1 Managing Foreign Matter Contamination Incidents
The Control of foreign matter procedure SQF-014 indicate that to prevent glass from entering any raw material, Light bulbs on the production floor are covered by a safety shield, if a bulb happens to break the shield will contain the glass. If the break is not contained as planned all open finished product near the break will be ground and labeled as 2nd dirt re-grind to be sold to an outside vendor for recycling. Area where break happened will be cleaned immediately.
All product produced is and packaged immediately into a plastic bag with clean new cardboard between each layer and sealed once bag quality is completed to ensure that all foreign matter is able to containment the finished product.
It would be beneficial for the plant to implement a form that will document the glass breakage incident.
so after searching the site I was able to find a lot of procedures and processes on how to handle broken glass, but what I need help with is exactly what do people put on the actual incident report? I under stand the concept of an incident report, I am really just looking to compare what I want to put on mine with what others are doing.
Thanks in Advance!
