Policy on Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat foods / Bureau of Microbial Hazards, Food Directorate, Health Products and Food Branch.: H164-230/2011E-PDF
"The Canadian “Policy on Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat foods” (hereafter referred to as the Listeria policy) is based on Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and the principles of HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point; see Appendix A). This policy was developed using a health risk assessment (HRA) approach and uses as its foundation a combination of inspection, environmental sampling and end-product testing to verify control of Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat (RTE) foods (RTE food is defined in Appendix A). Focus is given to environmental verification and control, especially in post-lethality areas, as applicable. This policy applies to RTE food sold in Canada, produced both domestically and imported. The present policy revises and replaces the Policy on Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat foods dated October 4, 2004"--Summary, p. 3.
