| The
Hazard Analysis
and Critical Control
Point (HACCP) system is a management
system focused on prevention of problems in order
to assure the production of food products that are
safe to consume. It is based on a common-sense
application of technical and scientific principles
to the food production process from field to table.
The principles are applicable to all phases of food
preparation, including basic agriculture, food preparation
and handling, food processing, food service, distribution
systems and consumer handling and use. |
