Good Afternoon!
During a recent food safety (AIB) audit, our auditor suggested we add (to our HACCP process flow diagrams) points in the process where scrap is generated. We include rework as part of our diagram, but not scrap. Theoretically, scrap can occur at virtually ANY step in the process, for a variety of reasons, and because it is scrap, it does not affect the final outcome of the product.
(Background -- we are a low-risk processing facility, not technically required by US Law to have a HACCP plan, per se)
So I put this to you, oh experts of all things food safety: Is it a good idea to include scrap on process flow diagrams?
Many thanks!
