General Data Protection Rule
GDPR
General Data Protection Rule
An EU rule known as the General Data Protection rule (GDPR) went into effect on May 25, 2018. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which supersedes the 1995 Data Protection Directive, enhances and expands upon the EU's present data protection framework.
The main goal of GDPR is to offer EU people more control over their personal data. In order for both citizens and businesses in the European Union to fully benefit from the digital economy, it strives to simplify the legal environment for business.
The changes are intended to reflect the world we already live in and bring laws and obligations throughout Europe—including those relating to personal data, privacy, and consent—up to date with the internet-connected era.
It adheres to seven standards set forth by the Codex Alimentarius Commission.
Principle 1
Perform a hazard analysis to identify potential problems with the meal and ways to address them. Risks can be physical (like metal particles), biological (like viruses), or chemical (like poisons).
Principle 2
Finding the critical control points (CCPs) is the second principle. These are the steps in the process where the risk can be reduced or entirely avoided (for example, during cooking).
Principle 3
Establish essential upper and lower bounds for each CCP. A critical limit is a requirement that must be fulfilled for a product to guarantee food safety (for instance, a minimum cooking temperature and duration to guarantee the eradication of dangerous germs).
Principle 4
To make sure each CCP stays below its critical limitations, establish CCP monitoring processes in accordance with principle 4. Determine who and how temperature and time will be monitored during cooking. Monitoring entails a series of observations or measurements to ascertain whether the CCP is under control.
Principle 5
If the CCP is outside of the predetermined range, take corrective action. Corrective measures are used to recover control of dangers, such as reprocessing or discarding food when the required minimums for cooking time and temperature are not met.
Principle 6
Establish verification processes to make sure the HACCP plan is functioning correctly and in accordance with documented protocols. This verification may involve going over HACCP plans, CCP records, and microbiological samples (for instance, testing timers and thermometers to make sure they're calibrated and operating properly).
Principle 7
Create procedures for record-keeping and documentation that show HACCP is operating correctly. This includes monitoring records, steps taken to address any issues, and validation records
