Purpose
The HACCP Program has been implemented to minimise the risk of hazards during the handling of the food whilst in the businesses control ensuring that products meet regulatory requirements of Our organisation has implemented a HACCP program in order to ensure the highest possible standards of food safety are maintained and to comply with the principles of HACCP as outlined in Codex Alimentarius Food Hygiene Basic Texts, Fourth Edition, 2009. The program also complies with the Australian Food Standards Code (Chapter 3 Food Safety Standards) and guidelines from Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ). The purpose of this HACCP1 plan is to reduce the risk of food contamination, prevent food poisoning and protect our customers, ensure we produce and provide the highest quality food products, and assist our organisation comply with current and future food safety legislation and practices in relation to food prepared, processed, stored and served on our premises. The policies and procedures in this HACCP Plan, including the Food Hygiene Practices Support Programs, are designed to control the risks that were identified whilst undertaking a hazard analysis of our food production and food service processes.
Scope
The scope of the program covers all areas of food production, sale and service including; receival, preparation, cooking, storage, distribution, display, sale and service.
The procedures and policies will be periodically reviewed in light of changes to work practice, improving technology and experience and changes in legislation. The content of the HACCP Plan provides the basis for the Australian legal concept of due diligence and includes a number of records which can be used as demonstrating evidence of correct procedures and practice for food safety. This HACCP Program has been developed by the HACCP Facilitation Team with the assistance of our external HACCP consultants.
HACCP Methodology:
Our organisation has implemented a HACCP program in order to ensure the highest possible standards of food safety are maintained and to comply with the principles of HACCP as outlined in Codex Alimentarius Food Hygiene Basic Texts, Fourth Edition, 2009. The program also complies with the Australian Food Standards Code (Chapter 3 Food Safety Standards) and guidelines from Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ), which include HACCP principles. All food safety critical limits and controls are based on the following guidelines and standards:Australian Food Standards Code 3.2.2: Food Safety Practices FSANZ, Temperature Control, April 2002 NSW Food Authority, Food Safety Guidelines on Applying the Two Hour Four Hour Rule for Temperature Control, 2011
particular CCP is not under control. PRINCIPLE 6: Establish procedures for verification to confirm that the HACCP system is working effectively. PRINCIPLE 7: Establish procedures for verification record keeping.
All procedures and records will be checked weekly and monthly and all monitoring records will be signed by the Head Chef and/or the Site Manager on a weekly/ monthly basis, supported by the monthly Internal Food Safety Audit, using the Internal Food Safety Audit (Form 11).
As part of the HACCP Program procedures, the makeup of the HACCP team will be assessed every twelve (12) months. In the circumstance, that a member of the HACCP team either leaves the organisation or is removed from the team, then the Head Chef/ Site Manager will assess the need to replace the particular team member. All members of the team will have appropriate skills and knowledge in food safety commensurate with their duties.

Service
To ensure the highest possible standards of food safety are maintained and to comply with the requirements of the Australian Food Standards Code we have undertaken a risk assessment of each of the process steps contained in the flow chart(s). This is based on the requirements of Standard 3.2.1: Food Safety Programs:-
systematically identify the potential hazards that may be reasonably expected to occur in all food handling operations of the food business; identify where, in a food handling operation, each hazard identified under paragraph (a) can be controlled and the means of control; provide for the systematic monitoring of those controls; provide for appropriate corrective action when that hazard, or each of those hazards, is found not to be under control; provide for the regular review of the program by the food business to ensure its adequacy; and provide for appropriate records to be made and kept by the food business demonstrating action taken in relation to, or in compliance with, the food safety program.
The Hazard Analysis for this Food Safety Program is contained in Appendix 1 at the end of this document. Those steps that have been identified as Critical Control Points are included in the Hazard Audit Table (Section 7-1).

This policy covers the following procedures practiced at Sunnyside Hotel:1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Receiving Storage Preparation Cooking/ Reheating Cooling Service
Source: NSW Food Authority Vulnerable Persons Food Safety Scheme Manual Version 2
POLICY:
All equipment used for food handling must be in good repair and condition. All staff are trained to report defects in relation to kitchen & food equipment. All maintenance and calibration work will be carried out as scheduled. Service records for all maintenance and calibration will be kept in the Site Manager/ Operations Managers Office. All maintenance issues including calibration, which may present a health risk, will be dealt with immediately. Under no circumstances will food production be undertaken in an area where maintenance work is being carried out. The Head Chef or Site Manager will supervise all maintenance work that takes place in or adjacent to the kitchen and will ensure that the repaired area is free from any risk of contamination before food production is recommenced. All work carried out will only be done by personnel / companies approved by the Site Manager/ Operations Manager. Once every month the food safety team will visually inspect the premises and equipment. Defects will be recorded on the Building Maintenance Register in the email file.
CALIBRATION POLICY:
The acceptable tolerance for temperature non-conformances of equipment is +/- 1C. A reference thermometer shall be used (i.e. en externally calibrated thermometer) to calibrate other thermometers used at the temperatures for which they will be used. If the reference thermometer is not available, individual probe thermometers will be internally calibrated using the ice-point and the boiling water method at least once every month.
Authorised By: Susan Sunny Hotel Manager Document Number HACCPPROGRAM Document Date: Next Review Date: Revision 0 1 March 2013 1 March 2014 Page No 27 of 42
All probe thermometers and infra red thermometers will be calibrated monthly and this will be recorded on the Monthly Probe Calibration Log (Form 8)
CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
Ice Point Check:
Make sure that the thermometer has been at ambient room temperature for at least 10 minutes. Fill a small insulated container (e.g. small foam esky) with crushed ice that has been made from potable water (town drinking water is OK). Add some water to the container, no more than one third the quantity of ice, to start the ice melting. There should be water between the ice pieces but the ice should not be floating. Pour off the excess water. Place the thermometer probe in the centre of the container so that the point of the probe is in contact with the ice and water. The point of the probe should not touch the base of the container. Leave for about 10 minutes to obtain a steady reading and stir. Read the temperature on the thermometer. If: The thermometer is accurate it should read 0oC. The temperature is not at 0C note the difference in the temperature reading. For example, if the thermometer is 0.5C, then the difference is -0.5C. The temperature is greater than 1C or colder than -1C, it is recommended that thermometers be replaced or returned to the manufacturer for servicing. When using the thermometer the difference must be used as a correction factor. For example, if the difference of the thermometer was -0.5C and the product temperature was 4.0C, then the correct temperature would be 4.0 0.5 = 3.5C
POLICY:
Sunnyside Hotel has nominated suppliers for all goods and services which have the highest food safety and quality standards. Each supplier will be included on the Approved Supplier List (Form 1) once they have been approved. Preference will be given to suppliers with HACCP certification.
Removal of Suppliers
If there are continuing problems and concerns regarding the quality, food safety or pricing of any of the approved suppliers, then the Head Chef / Site Manager will consider removing the supplier from Approved Supplier List (Form 1) after investigation of circumstances.
POLICY:
All equipment & utensils that come into direct contact with food are properly sanitised after every use, either by using a sanitiser or hot water above 82C. Dishwasher temperatures are recorded weekly on the Dishwasher Sanitising Temperature Log (Form 4). All other areas are cleaned on a regular, scheduled basis based on the Cleaning Schedule (Form 6). All staff are responsible for the cleanliness of the premises and will be trained in "Clean as you go Procedures during their induction. Staff will follow the Cleaning Schedule (Form 6), located in the kitchen, stores and servery areas, which outline what should be cleaned in each area. Special cleans are carried out by professional contractors, staff as required. The Head Chef will ensure that adequate stocks of cleaning chemicals and equipment are maintained and that MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheets) are maintained for all chemicals used. Approved chemical suppliers will provide Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) on each chemical MSDS will be held in the Site Manager or Operations Managers office.
The correct type and dosage of chemicals for cleaning and sanitising all areas. Correct tools and materials to effectively carry out the job How to safely dismantle and clean equipment Correct use and storage of cleaning equipment General chemical safety How to ensure that the chemical sanitiser is working correctly.
Cleaning Sanitisers will be used following all cleaning activities. Cleaning sanitiser will be replaced based on manufacturers instructions, generally every 24 hours. To ensure the safety of the food the following rules will apply:Chemical containers will not be used for food storage and visa versa All chemical containers will be clearly labelled Chemicals are never mixed together Staff will follow manufacturers instructions at all times Staff will use the correct protective clothing and equipment Chemicals/equipment used for cleaning will be stored safely & correctly away from food sources. All cleaning cloths and other cleaning equipment will be of good condition and will not pose a threat to food safety. Clean disposable cleaning cloths will be used. The Head Chef will visually monitor cleaning standards of the kitchen premises on a daily basis. On a weekly basis the Head Chef will conduct an in-depth inspection of the cleaning standards of the kitchen, stores/ dock and servery areas using the Daily Food Safety Log (Form 4). This will ensure that the Cleaning Schedule (Form 6) is being strictly adhered to. Areas of non-conformance and corrective action to prevent a re-occurrence will be noted on the Daily Food Safety Log (Form 4). If staff are not meeting the required standards they should be retrained and supervised more closely. If areas are being missed or new equipment is purchased, the Cleaning Schedule (Form 6) will be updated. The Cleaning Schedule will be regularly reviewed by the Head Chef.
Verification
At least once every three months the Assistant Site Manager will conduct cleaning verification using swabs of a range of nominated food handling surfaces. The results will be recorded on the Cleaning Verification Form (Form 6.4).

All products must be stored at least 18cm above the floor to allow for ease of access for cleaning and pest inspection and to minimise the likelihood of a pest infestation. All storage areas must be cleaned regularly as per the Cleaning Schedule. All spills and leaks must be cleaned up immediately.

Storage areas must have adequate lighting so that staff can clean adequately and safely and are able to read product labels and view the condition of products in storage. Light fittings must be covered to prevent contamination in the event of the light shattering.
