So, I'm fairly new to food safety, and I've just had my first SQF Audit.

 

I've received my SQFI Corrective Action Report, and I need to submit:

-Responsible Person

-Root Cause

-Corrective Action

-Containment Plan

-Preventative Action

 

I'm a little overwhelmed, and I can't find a definition of what a "Containment Plan" needs to include...I think I've covered the Responsible person, root cause analysis and corrective action properly, but I'm unsure of the last two.

 

Is there somewhere I can see an example of a supplier response to a CAR? Because I'm totally lost, I'd like to know that I'm approaching this properly and the clock's ticking...

 

Thank you so much

Ok, I've just reviewed my Responding to a Corrective Action document, and found the definitions for a few of them, but the Containment Plan definition section says the following:

 

"1. Containment Plan (for SQF this field means Immediate Correction): This box can be marked N/A."

 

What does this mean? For example, on a Temporary Repair N/C, should I write that we removed all temporary repairs, or should I just write N/A?

I think it's how you contained the issue if it couldn't be corrected immediately e.g. tagging out a non-conforming piece of equipment?

 

Submit the corrective action and/or call/email your aduitor and ask for advice

Hi Evelynn,

 

As per the previous posts a containment plan may be how you controlled non-conforming product and/or equipment.

 

The preventative action is action taken to prevent a recurrence.

 

I'm sure if you post an idea of the non-conformity raised people will be able to provide examples.

 

Kind regards,

 

Tony
