Hello all,

 

I'm in need for you to share all your knowledge. I'm having a very hard time training some employees and management personnel on the difference between a Corrective Action and a Preventive measure for a HACCP Deviation.  They don't seam to understand my explanation. I would really appreciate any ideas.

 

 

This is how my form describes it.

 

 

 

Deviation/What Happened?:Describe the cause of the deviation and how it was eliminated)

Immediate Corrective Action: (Describe what was done  to correct the issue  and if the CCP is back under control and Sanitary conditions restored)                          Product Disposition: (Describe what happened to the affected Product)

Preventive Measures: (Describe what are  you going to do to prevent a reoccurrence)

Correction: repair, rework, or adjustment and relates to the
disposition of an existing nonconformity.

• Corrective Action: the action taken to eliminate the causes
of an existing nonconformity, defect or other undesirable
situation in order to prevent recurrence.

• Preventive Action: action taken to eliminate the cause of a
potential nonconformity, defect, or other undesirable
situation in order to prevent occurrence.

• Nonconformity: non-fulfillment of a specified requirement.

 

Hope this helps. One is existing, one is potentially an issue.


Brian
