Raw Meat Pre-Operational Inspection
This raw meat pre-operational inspection checklist helps meat processing teams confirm sanitation and equipment readiness before production. It covers pump room and raw room areas, including cure injectors, mixers, conveyors, tables, cutting boards, utensils, sinks, drains, cooling units, walls, doors, floors, and PPE. The form prompts checks for chlorine solution levels, boot foamers, V-mags, and green aprons, and includes ATP swabbing with result capture, initials, date/time, and verification sign-off. Use it to support GMP and HACCP programs and maintain consistent, auditable pre-op hygiene standards.
