Which of the following is NOT one of the seven HACCP principles?

HACCP is built on seven principles that guide how to identify and control food safety hazards throughout production. The principles cover: conducting a hazard analysis; determining critical control points; establishing critical limits; establishing monitoring procedures; establishing corrective actions; performing verification; and maintaining documentation and records. Establishing sanitation standard operating procedures is essential for cleanliness and preventing contamination, but it falls under prerequisite programs and general sanitation practices rather than being one of the seven HACCP principles. So while SSOPs support the HACCP system, they are not itself a HACCP principle.
