Hello people,

Does anyone have an example of a hazard analysis for a potato chips production plant?

Thank you in advance for your time

Nikolaos,

 

I have worked at a potato chip plant for over 10 years and have developed a few hazard analysis (helping other manufactures - long story) specifically for potato chips.

The first important thing is to find / get / train someone to understand Hazard Analysis and Preventative Controls.  

 

Then, when looking for specific hazards, check with the FDA guidance document: https://www.fda.gov/...A/UCM517402.pdf

 

It lists the following hazards: Salmonella spp., Mycotoxins / Natural Toxins, bacterial pathogen survival of a lethal treatment, re contamination with environmental pathogens, Undeclared allergens - incorrect label, undeclared allergens -  cross contact, chemical hazards, and metal.

Basically, that comes down to having well defined programs for you cooking / frying step, sanitation program, allergen program, and metal detection.

 

I hope that gets you started.
