HACCP
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) is an internationally recognised food safety system to ensure safe procedures and products.
HACCP applies principles and methodology for identifying and controlling microbiological, chemical or physical hazards in all stages of food processing or handling. Development of a HACCP system will involve the development and maintenance of hazard analysis and control systems, prerequisite programs and management systems for your business.
HACCP certification will involve an independent audit of the business's compliance to the documented HACCP food safety systems and procedures of the business.
Implementation and maintaining HACCP certification can be critical to your compliance with food safety legislation, depending on your industry sector. It provides the foundations of a food safety and quality risk management tool that can support other management systems standards, and vendor standards across the food industry, as your business develops.
