This Food safety compliance training will explain the CCP Decision Tree and help you understand the principles behind each question. We will review various food processing steps in a variety of situations to determine whether they are CCP’s. What is the thought process in determining a CCP? Can it be done consistently? What criteria are used? Are some processing steps always CCP's e.g. heating? If not, why? One thing to remember is the importance of analyzing the hazards at each step very carefully. The more clearly the hazards are described (including equipment failures, personnel errors etc) the easier it will be to find the CCP.
The four Decision Tree questions each have a specific intent and when answered carefully will each direct you to the correct conclusion, narrowing the field in order to pinpoint the CCP.
Some example CCP's that we will discuss will be:
