We’re kicking off regular food safety polls on IFSQN that will be shared with our LinkedIn group.

 

Today’s question:

How often do you review your HACCP plan?

 

Take a second to vote, it’s quick, and gives you a chance to see how your peers approach HACCP reviews.

 

Drop a comment with how your company manages HACCP reviews in practice.

• Do you have a set schedule?
• Triggered by changes?
• Audit-driven?

It's always interesting to hear the real-world approaches behind the numbers, and share best practice.

I am not a HACCP team leader anymore but, none of the above?

 

For the last plan I was directly HACCP TL, we reviewed it before changes (should never be after) and every 1-2 months.  I know that's above requirements for standards etc but unless your HACCP plan is very well integrated into your day to day, I don't see how every 6-12 months is enough.

I'm also going none of the above.  I prioritize based upon complexity. We have 7 of them. Some get reviewed every 1-3 months basis due to the complexity and adding products. Others - once a year - they are simple.

Once a year, or more if needed due to some change, etc.   But I'd imagine this answer is going to vary greatly depending on what your plant does, it's size, etc.
