1.0 Introduction
1.1 About the establishment
“Freshtz” which is located in Industrial Zone, Ja-ela, Sri lanka, is an establishment
that produce Pineapple jam in order to serve nutritive, good quality and safe fruit products to
the nation. It was established in year 2000 with the collaboration of few people. The
establishment is now a large scale plant which is functioning with 400 employees including
to management. Though the company is in its initial stage, it has a considerable acceptance
by the local customers and now it has been extended to overseas customers. Since the
company has developed a good trade name among customers, the management of the
establishment wants to implement HACCP plan and get the certification to assure the safety
of the product and for further improvement of the market share.
Currently, “Freshtz” is targeting specially the adult and younger population of all
around the country. The products are available in almost all retail shops and super markets,
which are easily accessible to the target population. The company is planning to introduce a
wide range of modified products such as sugar free Jam products targeting the other
population groups, in near future.
Raw materials are received from selected, qualified suppliers in North Western
province. The company has its own standards in purchasing process and especially the most
important raw material; pineapple is purchased from reputed suppliers. The process flow and
the plant are designed according to the international standards to avoid cross contamination
and assure the maximum quality of the end product. The establishment is currently following
Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and written Sanitation Standard Operation Procedures
(SSOPs) as pre-requisites for implementing HACCP. The final products are distributed
throughout the country, via a distribution company which is qualified with required
standards.
1.2 Vision
To be a pioneer nutritive, safe and high quality, Jam producer in Sri Lanka.
1.3 Mission
Serve the local suppliers and our customers through engaging in reasonable business and
providing high quality product.

2.0 Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP)
Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) is an internationally recognized
system for reducing the risk of safety hazards in food.Implementing a HACCP System
requires that both Prerequisite Programs and HACCP Plans are implemented.
Prerequisite programs are programs that are put in place in the facility to control hazards in
the environment, preventing contamination of the product. Prerequisite programs ensure a
hygienic environment and good manufacturing processes for personnel that reduce the risk of
contamination of the food product.
HACCP Plans are prepared for each process or product, and identify possible hazards and
controls in place to make sure the hazards are eliminated or controlled to ensure acceptable
levels in the food. Awareness of food-borne illness is increasing and concern throughout the
industry is driving the use of HACCP and HACCP based certification programs.
Global market place
Increasing incidents of food-borne pathogens
New pathogens emerging
Need to protect Brands, control risks
A typical approach to implementing the 7 basic principles would be:
A risk assessment should be done during which risk and hazard categories should be
established. And then elimination of hazards should be done by design if possible. Then it
should be controlled of hazards that cannot be eliminated by an associated Critical Control
Point Definition of the control, monitoring, reporting and action procedures for each CCP.
Revision of manufacturing process flow diagrams should be done and finished product
quality specifications to encompass HACCP. Then a formal review of HACCP whenever
processes are done or product specifications are modified.
When determine the critical control point a decision table has been used to determine when a
Critical Control Point (CCP) is necessary. A ‘Yes’ answer to two key questions defines a
process step as a CCP.
It is important to consider about the process of jam production. It consists with these
main steps. Also it is important to pay attention to the input used in the particular step,
possible hazards and there are several questions which are involved in CCP determination.
Q1. Do preventive measures exist at this step for the identified hazard? If the answer is
yes, should move to the next question and if the answer is no there is another question which
is referred is control at this step necessary for safety? If the answer is yes for this question,
modify step, process or product and return to the Q1. If the answer is no, there is no CCP.
Q2. Does this step eliminate the hazard or reduce the likelihood of its occurrence to an
acceptable level? If the answer is no should move to the next question and if the answer is
yes, this is a CCP.
Q3. Could contamination with the identified hazard occur in excess of acceptable levels
or increase to unacceptable levels? If the answer is no this is not a CCP. But if the answer is
yes, should move to the next question.
Q4.will a subsequent step eliminates the hazard or reduces the likelihood of its
occurrence to an acceptable level? If the answer is no this is a CCP. If the answer is yes,
this is not a CCP. After that can determine the CCP number the processes have.
In our establishment different posts have different tasks which are support to maintain
the production and quality of the products. There are several sections in the company known
HACCP Analysis for the Pineapple Jam
Freshtz Products Page 3
as receiving area, processing and production area, packaging area, distribution section. The
members of the staff including executive manager, quality assurance manager, production
managers, supervisors, team leaders, workers etc, are having different roles throughout the
process.
There are number of major benefits to be gained from implementing an HACCP
approach in “Freshtz”. They include, HACCP is a management tool that provides a more
structured approach to the control of identified hazards than traditional inspection and quality
control procedures. HACCP can identify potential problems where failure has not yet been
experienced. Control of process and product quality is transferred from detection of failure to
prevention. In some circumstances this can bring about a significant improvement in
profitability by reducing product losses and reworks and exposure to liability. Also HACCP
is especially useful when designing new products and processes. HACCP can be useful in
obtaining existing quality standards (e.g. ISO9000) and covers all aspects of product safety. It
is also an internationally accepted approach to quality assurance and an important aspect of
the defense of due diligence. It provides a cost-effective control of hazards and properly
implemented focuses the attention of all involved in a process on critical areas.
3.0 Pre requisite programs
There are some basic practices that should be applied before implementing the
HACCP program in “Freshtz” and these are applied in following areas
3.1 Receiving and storage
Raw materials can be considered as major source of contamination. It is essential that
critical evaluation of procedures for raw material receiving and handling. For storage re-
evaluate the requirements and effectiveness of rooms and equipment for temperature control
and other environmental requirements (e.g. humidity) as appropriate. Check the potential for
overhead contamination and contamination from outside the facility, and effectiveness of
preventative measures.
3.2 Sanitation of premises and surrounding environment
Every attempt should be made to minimize contamination sources in the exterior
surroundings of the facility.
Sanitary facilities, wash rooms, and toilets should be separated from process areas and
should be clean and maintained. Employee hand washing sinks with water should be
provided and accessible to work areas.
Since Cleaning and sanitization procedures are the most important tasks in a food
processing/handling operation. Standard chemical supply for sanitation in company is useful
for effective cleaning and sanitizing program. Inspection and documentation can increase the
effectiveness of cleaning and sanitizing at regular intervals & selection and identify reliable
persons to be responsible for such operations.
3.3 Personal hygiene of employees
Evaluate the effectiveness of employee training programs with regard to personal
hygiene and sanitary practices. An increasingly common source of contamination in food
processing and handling is poor hygiene practices by employees. All employees should be
HACCP Analysis for the Pineapple Jam
Freshtz Products Page 4
instructed as to the importance of proper hygiene reminders or signs can help. Assess
employee working patterns Control access to critical areas for both visitors and employees.
3.4 Water supply
A food processing and handling facility should be provided with potable water. Water
from private wells should be sampled and examined for safety through microbiological
analysis on a regular frequency.
3.5 Lighting and ventilation
Evaluate the adequacy of lighting in the facility. If employees do not have adequate
lighting, they cannot effectively operate, maintain, and clean equipment. A poorly ventilated
plant will have condensation problems which increase the risk of overhead contamination.
3.6 Equipment handling and maintenance
Evaluate all for general sanitary design and construction. Cleanable grade stainless
steel surfaces are recommended wherever possible. Generally, wood surfaces are not
considered cleanable in design. Care should also be used in evaluating aluminum surfaces.
Aluminum can become corroded, cracked, and pitted with long term exposure to chemicals or
corrosive food materials. Corroded aluminum is not cleanable.
3.7 Waste management
Waste facilities should be separated from processing/handling areas and be cleaned
and maintained on a regular basis so as not to attract pests. Keep garbage and trash containers
or bags covered and sealed.
3.8 Pest control
Consult with a reputable pest control company to assist in pest elimination in the
processing environment. A designated, reliable employee should be charged with
responsibility to monitor and document the effectiveness of such a program.
For pest controlling, keep all entrances closed, remove stagnant water, control weeds
in the surroundings, check the perimeter of the facility for cracks or holes, be sure all food
products and packaging materials are stored on pallets off the floor, dispose of trash and
waste at the end of every work day, and monitor any other appropriate activities to control
pests.

4.0 Introduction about HACCP forms
When a HACCP plan is developed for a product, it has a procedure to continue
consequently. According to that, there are eight forms to fulfill in HACCP plan development
process. Those forms are very important to fill correctly to develop a good quality HACCP
plan for a product as well as to get standard good quality product finally. The HACCP forms
are, product description form, ingredients & incoming material list form, indented use and
consumers form, plant schematic form, hazard analysis & preventive measures form, CCP
determination form, critical limits, monitoring & corrective action form and verification &
record keeping form.
First form is used to describe about the jam product. Mainly, this form includes
product name, important product characteristics (like pH, water activity), about product
usage, packaging, shelf life, labeling instruction and special distribution control (store under
10o
C).
Second form provides a list of ingredients and incoming materials which are needed
to produce final product.
Third form is important to get idea about the target people of the product. That mean,
provide details about who are the people this product is buy mainly or who are the main
consumers of the product.
Forth form is displayed mainly jam production flow chart and specific condition of
some steps. All processing steps and their specific condition and as well as all ingredients &
incoming materials are included in the processing flow chart of jam and they are connected
with each other steps. In addition, the flow diagram can include steps in the food chain
which are before and after the processing that occurs in the establishment. The flow diagram
need not be as complex as engineering drawings. The purpose of a flow diagram is to provide
a clear, simple outline of the steps involved in the process.
The fifth form is used to analyze the hazard and apply to preventive measures for that
hazard condition of jam production. The purpose of the hazard analysis is to develop a list of
hazards which are of such significance that they are reasonably likely to cause injury or
illness, if not effectively controlled. All the ingredients and processing steps should be
included for that analysis procedure. The hazard analysis is the key to preparing an effective
HACCP plan. If the hazard analysis is not done correctly and the hazards warranting control
within the HACCP system are not identified, the plan will not be effective regardless of how
well it is followed. A hazard is defined as a biological, chemical and physical agent that is
reasonably likely to cause illness or injury in the absence of its control. In this form, if an
ingredient or processing step is become a hazard, check whether there is a preventive method
or control method for that and if there is preventive method, it can be applied to control it to
acceptable level.
HACCP Analysis for the Pineapple Jam
Freshtz Products Page 6
The sixth form is used to determine the critical control point from the all ingredients
and processing steps. Complete and accurate identification of CCPs is fundamental to
controlling food safety hazards. Although application of the CCP decision tree can be useful
in determining if a particular step is a CCP for a previously identified hazard.CCPs must be
carefully developed and documented. In addition, they must be used only for purposes of
product safety. For example, a specified heat process, at a given time and temperature
designed to destroy a specific microbiological pathogen, could be a CCP.
The seventh form is used to identify critical limits, monitoring procedure and
corrective action of CCPs. All CCPs are used in this form to maintain desired level. A critical
limit is a maximum and/or minimum value to which a biological, chemical or physical
parameter must be controlled at a CCP to prevent, eliminate or reduce to an acceptable level
the occurrence of a food safety hazard. Critical limits may be based upon factors such as:
temperature, time, moisture level, water activity (aw), pH, sensory information such as aroma
and visual appearance. Monitoring is a planned sequence of observations or measurements to
assess whether a CCP is under control and to produce an accurate record for future use in
verification. An important purpose of corrective actions is to prevent foods which may be
hazardous from reaching consumers. Where there is a deviation from established critical
limits, corrective actions are necessary.
The last form is used to verification and record keeping. Verification is defined as
those activities, other than monitoring, that determine the validity of the HACCP plan and
that the system is operating according to the plan. These processes should take place during
the development and implementation of the HACCP plans and maintenance of the HACCP
system. All forms should be approved by relevant person to check whether that procedure is
done correctly.
5.0 Preliminary steps
It is important to ensure that a HACCP plan has a solid foundation and that safe food
is produced, certain initial steps must be carefully followed. It is extremely important to have
full commitment to the HACCP initiative from management at all levels. Without a firm
commitment, it may be difficult or impossible to implement the HACCP plan. Before the
study is begun, management should inform all staff of the intention to implement HACCP.
Both the company and the personnel involved in the development of the HACCP plan must
be totally committed to its implementation.
Preliminary steps are designed to produce safe product through the well established
HACCP procedure. There are five preliminary steps should be followed initiating the
HACCP plan for pineapple jam production.
