What does it mean to identify corrective actions?

  1. Identify steps that must be taken when critical limits are not met

  2. Develop a list of potential hazards

  3. Regular maintenance of equipment

  4. Recording the temperature of stored food

The correct answer is: Identify steps that must be taken when critical limits are not met

Identifying corrective actions means determining the steps that need to be taken when critical limits are not met in a food safety system. This involves recognizing and implementing specific procedures to address situations where food safety standards are not being met to prevent potential hazards and ensure the safety of the food being served to customers. The other options, such as developing a list of potential hazards, regular maintenance of equipment, or recording stored food temperatures, are important aspects of food safety but do not directly address the specific actions needed when critical limits are not met.
