HACCP System Verification Overview

The HACCP system verification ensures that the mango juice safety management procedures are
fully operational and effectively controlling all identified hazards. This involves routine
activities as well as periodic detailed reviews and testing, as outlined below:

RECORD-KEEPING PROCEDURES
Record keeping or documentation
Effective record keeping is essential to ensure the HACCP system for Mango Juice production
remains reliable, traceable, and compliant. All records must be accurate, timely, and stored
appropriately for future verification and audits. The following are the categories of records
maintained as part of our HACCP system:

Categories of Records Maintained


1. HACCP plan and support documentation used in developing the plan
2. Records of CCP monitoring (e.g., temperature logs, sealing integrity checks)
3. Records of corrective actions taken at CCPs (e.g., reprocessing, batch rejections)
4. Records of verification activities (e.g., internal audits, calibration reports)
5. Customer complaints (e.g., off-flavor reports, packaging issues)
6. Management review minutes (e.g., monthly HACCP review discussions)
7. Minutes of Food Safety Team meetings (e.g., hygiene reviews, process changes)
8. Training records for personnel (e.g., GMP, CCP monitoring techniques)

Support Documents Maintained


• A list of the HACCP team members and their roles in mango juice production.
• A summary of the preliminary steps taken during the HACCP plan development (e.g.,
product description, intended use, process flow).
• Prerequisite programs such as sanitation SOPs, pest control logs, and equipment
maintenance schedules.

Examples of CCP Monitoring Records


• Storage temperature logs for mango pulp, pasteurized juice, and filled bottles to ensure
temperatures remain within safe limits.
• Pasteurization temperature and time logs to confirm adequate microbial kill step.
• Container seal integrity records including hourly checks and visual inspection outcomes.

Record Management Practices


All records are reviewed by the QA Manager weekly and audited monthly. Digital records are
stored in a secure folder with controlled access, and physical copies are retained in the QA office
archive. Retention periods vary by record type, with critical CCP records retained for a minimum
of 2 years, and validation/verification reports for up to 3 years.
