Hello to everyone....
please find below some questions/concerns about hazard analysis (7.4) of ISO22K:
In 7.4.2.1 we have to mention all the possible hazzards that may arise from everywhere (eg. raw materials, proccess, facilities etc.) or only the ones that there is a possibility of presence in the final product (eg. hazard from raw material A might be a pathogen but in the final product eg. yogurt due to its pH (lower than 4,5) and not only is not possible to exist)?
In 7.4.3. the hazard assessment is done per hazard in each process step or for the hazard in the final product?
eg. the possibility of precence of pathogen A in step "storage of raw milk" is high and in step "pasterization of raw milk" is low or the possibility of precence of pathogen A in pasteurized milk (final product) is small due to pasterization and aspectic filling?
Also if the hazard assessment is in every process step that may arise, do i take in consideration the existing control measures or not? In most of the studies that i have seen they use hazard assessment as a screening technique for the control measures.
step: storage of raw milk in a tank
microbiological hazards:
a) growth of possible existing pathogens (if temp is above 6C or storage time is above 48hours) and formation of toxins or spores that could not be eliminated by pasterization
b) contamination with pathogens from equipment, personel etc.
For a)
-process equipment: usage of cooling tank, alarm if temp arise above 6C
-control measures: checking of the temp and time before proceeding to the next step (pasteurization)
Possibitily with the aboves low...without them high......????
For b)
-process equipment: closed circuits, adequate equipment etc.
control measures: cleaning procedures, training of personel etc.....
possibility low....
Could you please comment the aboves?
I am sorry if my english are not very well and i am not sure that i made my point.
