4.2 Receiving and quality control

Receiving is defined as a critical control point (CCP) within the HACCP system. On receipt, it is necessary to record temperature (0–4°C for chilled goods, below −18°C for frozen goods), assess the condition of packaging and verify traceability.

Deviations must be recorded immediately in a deviation report. Technological solutions such as RFID tags or automated temperature sensors can significantly reduce human error at this stage.
