Preventive Control Rule – 21 Code of Federal Regulations Part 117
The Preventive Control Rule for Human food establishes requirements for facilities that manufacture, process, pack, or hold food for consumption.
Is your company subject to the new Preventive Control Rule?
The primary assessment for companies as to whether they are subject to the Preventive Control Rule is the requirement to register with FDA as a food facility, known as Registration of Food Facilities.
If your facility is required to register, the facility is subject to the Preventive Control Rules, unless the facility qualifies for an exemption listed within the actual rule.
DSHS Foods Group has put together a flow diagram to assist companies in determining whether the facility may be subject to the rule.
