What is the fifth HACCP principle?

  1. Establish monitoring procedures

  2. Identify corrective actions

  3. Determine critical control points

  4. Conduct a hazard analysis

The correct answer is: Identify corrective actions

Option A, establishing monitoring procedures, is part of the sixth HACCP principle of verification and record-keeping. Option C, determining critical control points, is part of the third HACCP principle of conducting a hazard analysis. Option D, conducting a hazard analysis, is the first HACCP principle and involves identifying potential hazards that may occur in the food production process. Therefore, option B is the most accurate answer for the fifth HACCP principle.
