I work at a company that deals with ready to eat fruit SQF Manufacturing Module 10 and we are looking to change our hairnet policy to not having to wear one if you have a hat and/ or your hair tired back and secure."The Code just list states hair restraints are used where product is exposed"

 

What is your definition of a hair restraint?

We used hats as hair restraint. Edition 8 is requiring a risk assessment for the clothing and hair policy see below: 

 

10.3.3.1 The facility shall undertake a risk analysis to ensure that the clothing and hair policy protects materials, food and food contact surfaces from unintentional microbiological or physical contamination. 

 

Justify your decision and be able to prove its safe.
