FOOD INSPECTOR
Professional Summary
Skills
Work History
Food Inspector, 09/2003 to Current
USDA, FSIS – 671 Randall Wobbe Lane, Springdale, AR 72764

As a poultry food inspector: Inspect 35 birds a minute in a slaughter processing plant. My mission is to maintain food safety through means of inspection to insure consumers are receiving a safe wholesome product. 

Main duties are to observe poultry products, detecting the various forms of abnormal pathology, contamination, improper presentation, and retaining carcasses for veterinary disposition. 

Other duties: Keeping myself aware of my surrounding and communicating with plant personnel on issues such as condensation, employees not following GMP's, machinery being maintained in a sanitary condition, and making sure plant personnel operate within compliance of USDA rules and regulations. 

Having the opportunity to shadow off line inspectors: I have observed and have knowledge of ante-mortem, GCP, Slaughter HACCP,  microbiological sampling, reviewing of records, SSOP and SPS task as well as general labeling.  Through my own learning and in plant supervisory trainings I have  become familiar with the SSOP, SPS, and HACCP tasks as well as shadowing CSI's while performing their PHIS tasks. I have had the opportunity to observe the NPIS inspection system at a turkey plant and have knowledge of how the NPIS process works.  

I continually strive to obtain a greater knowledge of my position through reading, reviewing and studying complex materials associated with the inspection acts, anatomy of animals associated with slaughter, directives, notices, and training materials. 

I am quick to offer my assistance in training new inspection team members and have been selected numerous times to train new employees.  

An example demonstrating my skills in HACCP: While performing on line inspection duties I observed a plant employee who was not following reprocessing procedures for contaminated carcasses. The procedure stated that product would be placed in orange tubs after reprocessing actions were complete. The product would then be presented for re-inspection. I observed as the employee dumped the product into a portable tank which is used to take the product to the end of the line and place back into production. The employee did not perform the re-inspection of the product. I notified the off-line inspector who then observed the product being placed back on the production line. The offline inspector immediately performed a Zero Tolerance check and observed two out of the ten randomly selected carcasses to be contaminated with visible fecal material. An NR was issued due to these findings. 

Examples demonstrating my skills in SSOP: While performing on-line inspection duties I observed water dripping from shackle kick outs on the evisceration line. I notified plant management and the off-line inspector. It was determined that a turn wheel near had been adjusted and overhead product going into the chiller was dripping onto the kick outs below the turn wheel. The turn wheel is not a product contact surface so liquid dripping from the turn wheel onto product contact surfaces is an insanitary condition that could lead to adulteration of product. The liquid was wiped off the turn wheel. A slide was placed above the turn wheel to prevent liquid from dripping onto the turn wheel. 

I observed birds on the salvage line appear to be dragging in a drip pan that is not maintained by a chlorinated flow of water. I notified the rlief CSI assigned to our plant that week. He investigated the issue and confirmed birds were dragging in the drip pan. The CSI discussed the issue with the SCSI and the plant management. The plant shortened the salvage line shackles to prevent cross contamination of product. 

  • While performing my inspection duties I noticed a foul smell out of the ordinary.  I began looking around and observed plant personnel acting out of the ordinary and a large amount of debris on a piece of machinery near the gut pump.  I questioned the floor lady about the gut pump exploding and she replied she didn't know what had happened but it was all over the maintenance man.  I immediately stopped the line and went to that area. The viscera condemn chute had exploded and splattered  condemn visceral parts all over product, equipment, framework, overhead structures, fans, drip pans, light covers, plastic shields, and curtain strips at the hot dip tank of this area.  I notified off-line personnel. Plant management was notified by the SCSI and the CSI. Plant management took action to condemn approximately 200 carcasses and elected to take a extended lunch break to restore sanitary conditions to the equipment and overhead structures. 
  • An example of observations of Good Commercial Practices: While performing my inspection duties I began  receiving cadaver birds. I then called for a CSI and informed him of my concerns.  He verified at least 6 cadavers at my inspection station.  Upon investigation  and communication with a CSI-7 who had concerns about the back -up killer being absent on the production line and  several carcasses at the re-hang table with no evidence of a kill cut  that had died by other means other than slaughter and  carcasses being  discarded at the re-hang table by plant personnel. A tag was placed on the line until the process control could be restored. Plant management assured inspection that corrective measures were taken. 
WAE Intermittent Food Inspector, 05/2000 to 09/2003

As a WAE inspector I was available to preform postmortem inspection duties. I was a non-full time employee without a regular scheduled tour of duty. I was available to work on sporadic and unpredictable times and filled in for regular full time employees and on an as needed basis. I provided the first line of defense by ensuring that regulated poultry establishments produced safe wholesome products by executing appropriate inspections methods in a hen poultry slaughter and processing plant.
