Dear Kara,
It’s brave of you to give an example concerning oPRP. Unfortunately, I’m afraid I don’t understand it.
It seems to me that the aspect of hand hygiene is a simple example of a fundamental PRP just as in a typical current HACCP analysis plan for an RTE item. (many years ago the typical plan had “Sanitation CCP’s” in many steps but all these were moved into the group of “Pre-requisites”).
I sincerely hope that the concept of ISO22000 to decide to specify a step as an oPRP has a stronger conceptual meaning than related to the lack of a specific number for a critical limit. For myself, I had vaguely believed that the additional prefix "O" (= Operational?) indicated something more exact regarding the actual process line but I am totally willing to be persuaded otherwise.
I am not criticising yr effort at all (the exact opposite in fact ), just demonstrating my sad level of lack of understanding the ISO intention for using the category of oPRP. It is equally unfortunate IMO that the ISO22000 published documentation also gives no clear practical examples to explain these (I presume) important differences in meaning. The original ISO discussions prior to the issuing of the standard suggest that this feature was highly disagreed between the representative countries and the result, again IMO, is a total mess.
I suppose it’s a financial bonus for the auditor business however.
(All this is somewhat away from original post, sorry Pedro, but at least we're in the right forum )
