Corrective action – action to eliminate the cause of a detected nonconformity or other desirable
situation
Validation – obtaining evidence that the control measures managed by the HACCP plan and the OPRPs
are capable of being effective
Verification – Confirmation, through the provision of objective evidence, that specified requirements
have been fulfilled
