Management & HACCPQuestion 262 of 320
Which document set best supports active managerial control across all shifts?
a.The owner's memory of past problems
b.A single handwritten note taped to the cooler
c.Written standard operating procedures, training records, and monitoring logs
d.Verbal instructions given once at hire
Explanation
Active managerial control is sustained through written standard operating procedures, documented training, and routine monitoring logs, so every shift follows the same safe practices and problems can be caught and traced. Written systems outlast staff turnover and memory. Relying on a single note or one-time verbal instructions leaves food safety to chance.
