Hazard
Analysis Critical Control Point or HACCP
(English, pronounced
/ˈhæsʌp/) is a systematic
preventive approach to food safety and
pharmaceutical safety that addresses
physical, chemical, and biological
hazards as a means of prevention rather
than finished product inspection. HACCP
is used in the food industry to identify
potential food safety hazards, so that
key actions can be taken to reduce or
eliminate the risk of the hazards being
realized. The system is used at all
stages of food production and
preparation processes including
packaging, distribution, etc. The Food
and Drug Administration (FDA) and the
United States Department of Agriculture
(USDA) say that their mandatory HACCP
programs for
juice and meat are an effective approach
to food safety and protecting public
health. Meat HACCP systems are regulated
by the USDA, while seafood and juice are
regulated by the FDA. The use of HACCP
is currently voluntary in other food
industries
