What is a risk assessment?´ Define risk
´ Risk is an estimate of the chance of a hazard being present and the chance of it causing harm.
´ Define hazard
´ Hazard is a biological, chemical, including allergenic, physical or radiological substance that has the potential to harm.
´ Risk assessment (or hazard analysis per 117.300), is the scientific evaluation of known or reasonably foreseeable hazard and the severity of illness and probability of occurrence.
´ Risk assessments can be very complicated and take a lot of time, but they help you learn so much about your process
![Page 3: Risk Assessments - Midwest Labs€¦ · ´Risk assessment (or hazard analysis per 117.300), is the scientific evaluation of known or reasonably foreseeable hazard and the severity](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070721/5ee23d1bad6a402d666ccd32/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Where are risk assessments needed for FSMA
´ Food Safety Plans ´ Both human and animal food´ Must be conducted for each type of food manufactured, processed, packed
or held at your facility to determine if there are hazards requiring a preventive control.´Processing Steps´Ingredients - part of your supply chain program
´ FSVP´ Ingredients – must be conducted for each type of food that imported´ Suppliers – their performance relevant to food safety
´ Wording is aligned between the three rules and ask for the same types of assessment of risk through the hazard analysis.

The What
´ Flow chart of the process´Define the steps in your processes ´Outline what food safety steps are taken at each step
´Process controls, Allergen controls, Sanitation controls or Supply Chain controls
´Walk the flow chart with the members of your food safety team ´Ensure all the inputs and outputs are correct

Flow charts can be colorful and very visually descriptive
Stay consistent in how you use shapes and colors in your flow chart
![Page 8: Risk Assessments - Midwest Labs€¦ · ´Risk assessment (or hazard analysis per 117.300), is the scientific evaluation of known or reasonably foreseeable hazard and the severity](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070721/5ee23d1bad6a402d666ccd32/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The What
´Create a List of Ingredients´Bulk, Bagged, Frozen, Liquid, Refrigerated, etc.´Ingredients could be used in more than one risk assessment
depending on use in the facility´List the ingredients used at each step of your process
´Risk is assessed based on point in the process and the nature of use
´This list includes processing aids ´Don’t forget packaging materials
´Risk is often minimal, but important to consider
![Page 9: Risk Assessments - Midwest Labs€¦ · ´Risk assessment (or hazard analysis per 117.300), is the scientific evaluation of known or reasonably foreseeable hazard and the severity](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070721/5ee23d1bad6a402d666ccd32/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
The Where & How´ Where are ingredients added in the process
´ Could there be multiple points for the same ingredient in a food safety plan or could be in multiple food safety plans
´ Risk determinization can be tricky when added at multiple points´ How are ingredients added
´ Manually or automatically – does that change the risk´ Resources to help assess and determine the risk
´ Scientific studies´ Research journals´ White papers´ Industry publications´ https://www.fda.gov/downloads/Food/GuidanceRegulation/FSMA/UCM

Why
´ Ask yourself ´Why are these the risks associated with the ingredient or
processing step´Why do we control them in this manner
´Which programs are in place to ensure the risk of the hazard is minimized or reduced
´Ensure these programs are documented and accurately reflect your plant practices
´Keep asking why until you have found the proper control
![Page 11: Risk Assessments - Midwest Labs€¦ · ´Risk assessment (or hazard analysis per 117.300), is the scientific evaluation of known or reasonably foreseeable hazard and the severity](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070721/5ee23d1bad6a402d666ccd32/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Who
´ Who is responsible for all the risk assessment´Quality – risk assessment, defined hazards, assess risk,
determine preventive controls´Purchasing – approve suppliers, correct ingredient ´Manufacturing – procedures and process controls´Sanitation – cleaning procedures´Warehouse – storage and rotation
![Page 12: Risk Assessments - Midwest Labs€¦ · ´Risk assessment (or hazard analysis per 117.300), is the scientific evaluation of known or reasonably foreseeable hazard and the severity](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070721/5ee23d1bad6a402d666ccd32/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The When
´ Risk assessment is a living document´ Re-assess when
´A new ingredient is added´An ingredient is used in a new manner´Process steps change – either added or removed´Processing parameters change
![Page 13: Risk Assessments - Midwest Labs€¦ · ´Risk assessment (or hazard analysis per 117.300), is the scientific evaluation of known or reasonably foreseeable hazard and the severity](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070721/5ee23d1bad6a402d666ccd32/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
How to bring it together
´ No correct format ´ Suggest using excel spreadsheet format
´ Severity and Likelihood (Probability) ´ Determine a consistent way to define for both process and ingredients
´ Re-assess when ´ A new ingredient is added´ An ingredient is used in a new manner´ Process steps change – either added or removed´ Processing parameters change
