Records created in the ordinary course of business: payroll classifications, shift schedules, corrective-action forms showing who signs and who approves, the HACCP plan's authorship and revision history, audit reports naming the responsible manager, budget approvals and any authority to hold or release product. Job descriptions written for the petition carry little weight on their own.
Use documents the company did not write for the case
The strongest evidence is contemporaneous and boring. Collect twelve months of shift schedules that show the technicians on the floor and the manager in the office or at the audit table. Pull the corrective-action log and highlight the entries where a technician records the deviation and the manager approves the disposition.
Include the HACCP plan with its revision page listing her as the approver. Add the third-party audit report, which will name the food-safety lead, and the budget or purchase orders she authorized for sanitation supplies and laboratory testing. If she also holds signing authority to release a shipment on hold, include the procedure and a redacted example.
Support the organizational chart with a short declaration from the plant manager explaining reporting lines, but keep the declaration consistent with the records; a chart that promotes her for the petition while the audit report calls her a coordinator will draw a request for evidence.
