By implementing a system that monitors and controls food production processes using chemical analysis techniques. HACCP helps a business develop a system of policies and procedures which outline how food handlers can ensure food remains safe while being prepared for consumption. HACCP monitors the critical control point of food hazards and alerts food handlers when control has been lost. 4. What is a method of monitoring many types of potential food hazards and can be used on a daily basis in the workplace? Send samples of food to an external laboratory for chemical analysis. Keep records on cleaning, maintenance and calibration processes. Use a probe thermometer to measure and record the temperature of food. Conduct daily inspections of preparation and storage areas and record any corrective actions which may need to be taken.
