Which document is FDA hazards and controls guidance in development?

• A. Seafood HACCP Hazards and controls guidance
• B. Juice HACCP Hazards and controls guidance
• C. Food Safety Preventive Controls for Human Food Hazards and Controls
• D. Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points Overview

Answer: (C)

The document in development is the comprehensive FDA guidance that supports the preventive controls approach for human food under FSMA. It’s titled Food Safety Preventive Controls for Human Food Hazards and Controls and provides how-to guidance on conducting hazard analyses, selecting and implementing preventive controls, and establishing monitoring, verification, corrective actions, and supply-chain programs. This aligns with the PCQI’s responsibilities to identify hazards and ensure appropriate controls are in place across all human foods. The other guides mentioned are sector-specific HACCP documents (for seafood and for juice) that already exist and provide hazard-and-control guidance tailored to those particular industries. They are not the universal hazards-and-controls guidance in development for all human foods. The generic Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points Overview isn’t the formal FDA hazards-and-controls guidance in development for human food.
