The August FSMA Fridays session with Dr. David Acheson, began with a FSMA update followed by a discussion on FSMA-Ready food safety plans including:
- The philosophy behind a FSMA Food Safety Plan
- The difference between a HACCP plan and HARPC plan
- The key elements of a FSMA Food Safety Plan
- How environmental monitoring and supply chain risk control fit into the Food Safety Plan
- The format and material needed for a FSMA Food Safety Plan
- What the FDA will expect in terms of documentation for a Food Safety Plan including records to keep and information on routine inspections
“This FSMA Friday’s session topic was especially timely given the FDA’s recent release of the final FSMA preventive control rules for human and animal food,” commented Jill Bender, VP Marketing for SafetyChain Software. “Our FSMA Fridays monthly session was once again well-attended by food and beverage companies who are looking for guidance and insights on how best to comply with FSMA.”
