HACCP (Extended plan)

Staff briefing and training journal

Staff training and briefing register. Records training completed according to the plan: who attended, when, the topic and the signature. This is the first thing requested during an incident investigation.

What this log is for

Keeping a briefing register is daily practice under the training requirements for staff involved in food production and circulation. The electronic signature saves the person's full name and timestamp automatically, and a sample completed form is available to download.

Questions and answers

What should I record in Staff briefing and training journal?

Required fields: Training date and topic; Employee's full name and position; Instructor's and trainee's signatures. An empty field is equivalent to an incomplete log for an inspector, so use a dash deliberately and include an explanation.

How often should I complete Staff briefing and training journal?

According to the HACCP plan: the frequency is set when describing the control point and justified in the plan itself.

Which document requires Staff briefing and training journal?

Customs Union Technical Regulation 021/2011, Article 10. Include the regulatory reference on the title page so the inspector can immediately see why the log is kept.

Can I keep Staff briefing and training journal electronically?

Yes. SanPiN 2.3/2.4.4282-26 does not require paper: the important points are being able to see who made an entry and when, and preventing unnoticed retrospective changes. For an inspection, print the electronic log for the required period.

How long should I keep Staff briefing and training journal?

Inspectors usually request records for the last 12 months, so one year is a practical minimum. Keep logs connected with a food poisoning investigation or a complaint until the proceedings are closed.
