Our auditor said we need to have a separate sheet for doing a random weight check of the products, prior we were recording on the production sheets. Is there anything in particular i should be adding? Is product name, date and weight enough? Cheers

Some further details may assist, eg

Audit Standard ?

Product ?

Regulatory-related ?

HACCP standard and the products are baked goods

If this is retail, will probably be a regulatory procedure.

 

weight is not a haccp factor ?

From distant memory, Australia uses a specific Procedure for Net Weight control/acceptable tolerances but which is dissimilar to that used in UK Weights and Measures, eg -

We once had a issue with our checkweigher that weighs each individual product and rejects light ones. We weigh out ingredients to spec, but while we fixed this problem, our inspector allowed us to run, provide these averages did not go below stated weights. It was kind of fluke situation but I remembered the sheet.
