3.2.1.9 - "The location of all transfer points shall not compromise high risk and low risk segragation and practices shall be in place to minimise risk of product contaminations" e.g. disinfection

Can someone comment on what is meant by "location of transfer points"

Simon,

IMO its exactly what it means...............whether pre-determined, permanent or temporary transfer points of food products - it must be located in an area where it does not compromise the original intention of segregating high risk and low risk operations including the practices designed to minimise risk contamination.

Do you agree!

Erm I think so. An example would help to cut through the verbiage.

Frozen product from a processing area (high care & high risk area) going into transfer point No. 1 at a hygienic and enclosed loading bay and transfer point No. 2 into a pre-cooled reefer container.

Is this ?????????

Sure is, thank you. 3.2.1.9 makes perfect sense.

Dear Friends,

I think it means when you would like to enter the high risk area (e.g. cooked shrimp processing room) from low risk area (re.g. raw shrimp processing room), it is needed to change your cloth or cover with hygienic protective clothings.

Hi Narongchai,
Thats another valid viewpoint. It also specifically mentioned about "disinfection" as an example
so I might be wrong too!

Would be good if someone with experience should help clarify this.

I think the handwashing station and other facilities including methods of disinfection (e.g. alcohol dispensor, iodophore dispensor) shall be installed at that point.

Why can't they just write in plain simple English for all to understand. Even Simon has problem figuring this out
