Hi,

I think, even if your company is a beer processingfacility, I suggest that you do a complete " Glass Audit" in your facility. You need to know where are located all glass and bristle in your facility.

Also, I thig that it deosn't matter the standard used during and for your audit, lamp everywhere in a processing plant must be cover from the entrance of your building to the shipping door.

Also, Sanitation should leave one Janitor in plave during processing to remove constantly eany glass brise left on a floor during production.

Hi Witek
Glass, like hair tends to migrate easily so i would suggest you cover all the lamps- including those in the warehouse.If for some reason a lamp which is so many feet above ground falls, it sure will shatter into a hundreds of shards which can be picked by shoes and moved to your processing area or could be missed during cleanup.

you have many broken glasses , i think the main question would be why,why and why? you should examine your process and see if you can not 'mistake proof it' against glass breakage. There must be some improvements you can make to solve this than to hire a person for clean up.

As Mr Traceability suggested , you sure need a complete glass audit , including ceramics if you have some. But i think this so much applies to fixed glass than to processing packaging. fixed glass needs daily auditing and process glass (packaging) needs inspection sampling.

i will check around with some friends who work with glass and get back with more info if any.

Bring in severity and likelihood in your risk assessment as to the harm that could be done as a result of the glass.

If you can prove in the assessment that it doesn't cause much harm and you are controlling it adequately through

good manufacturing practices
