Major Violations are critical risk factor violations that pose the highest risk of causing food poisoning (or foodborne illness). Major violations require immediate corrective action.
Minor Violations are critical risk factor violations that pose less risk of causing food poisoning (or foodborne illness). Minor violations do not warrant immediate verification of compliance.
Good Retail Practice violations are preventative measures that include practices and procedures that effectively control the introduction of hazards into food.
