Understand The Importance Of The HACCP Program In The Food Industry

by Tech Patrick Tech patick parker

The Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point System (HACCP) is a process regulation program that identifies the potential hazards that might occur in the procedure of food production. If you’re into the food industry then you must have heard about it before. To know more about this program and its importance in the food industry, keep reading the following article. 

 

Haccp Process ensures food safety through the scrutiny and regulation of physical, chemical and biological perils from raw material development, procurement and management, to consumption, distribution and manufacturing of the finished products.


 

Why HACCP? 

HACCP is crucial since allergic reactions and foodborne illness can be dangerous health issue which often results from bad sterility in food processing and preparation areas. 

 

Why HACCP is important in the food industry? 

There are plenty of reasons, indicating that HACCP is crucial in the food industry. Some reasons include: 

  1. Provides an outline to prepare food securely and to prove that the food is produced securely. 
  2. Regulating main food risks that include physical, chemical and microbiological contaminants. 
  3. Regulate and prioritize serious perils in food production
  4. Cover all sorts of potential food safety perils whether they occur naturally or are contributed by any man-made activity. Perils such as physical hazards (glass, metal), chemical hazards (mycotoxins, and pesticide residues) and biological hazards (viruses and bacteria)
  5. Offer businesses with an economical system for regulation of food safety, from constituents right through to development, distribution and storage to service and sale to the final customer. 
  6. Several consumers in the food chain need their suppliers to have authorized HACCP systems. 
  7. Regulation of latent food safety perils rather than scrutiny. 

 

What are the 7 principles of Haccp In Food Industry? 

  1. Identification and assessment of perils linked with food from grange to the consumer’s plate. 
  2. Determine critical control points to regulate any identified peril. 
  3. Establishing bonds of the critical control points 
  4. Establishing a regulating process for critical control points 
  5. Establishing corrective actions 
  6. Establishing verification process 
  7. Establishing a record system

 

How can we use HACCP at home? 

You can implement HACCP practices at home by following appropriate cleaning, cooking, handling and storage procedures. From purchasing poultry and meat from the shops to storing and cooking it, there are plenty of things that ensure safety such as proper cooling of poultry and meat and keeping the raw and cooked meat and poultry separated from each other.
