HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) is a food safety system that identifies potential food safety hazards and puts controls in place to prevent them. It was originally developed in the 1960s for NASA space missions to ensure food safety. Since then, HACCP principles have been adopted worldwide by food standards organizations and legislation. The document provides a detailed history of the development of HACCP from 1959 to the present and describes the seven principles of HACCP and guidelines for its application, which include assembling a HACCP team, describing products, identifying intended uses, constructing flow diagrams, identifying hazards and controls, determining critical control points, and establishing monitoring, verification and documentation procedures.
Introduction to HACCP
- 1. Introduction to HACCP (Hazards Analysis Critical Control Point) Genap 2010/2011
- 2. HACCP n Food safety in the early twenty-first century is an international challenge requiring close cooperation between countries in agreeing standards and in setting up transnational surveillance systems. n The behavior of consumers has been gradually changing. They currently require not only much higher dietary quality, hygiene and health standards in the products they purchase, but they also look for certification and reassurance of products’ origins (national or geographical) and production methods.
- 3. History of HACCP n Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) was developed in the 1960s in the United States to ensure food safety for the first manned National Aeronautics and Space Administration space missions (NASA). n NASA required a ‘zero defect’ program to guarantee safety in the foods astronauts consumed in space.
- 4. n Since then, HACCP principles have been defined and endorsed in international food standards (Codex Alimentarius Commission), and in European and UK legislation. Indonesia à SNI 1998 n Pillsbury presented the HACCP system at a national food protection conference in 1971
- 5. Chronology of Development of HACCP as a Safety System in the Food Industry n 1959. The Pillsbury Company develops concept for NASA. n 1971. HACCP, as we presently know it, took form at the US National Conference on Food Protection, where risk assessment was combined with the critical point concept (1st mention of HACCP). n 1972. The Pillsbury Company in the United States began the application of its HACCP concept to the manufacture of its consumer food products. Pillsbury published the first comprehensive treatise on HACCP in 1973.
- 6. n 1973. An HACCP system was adopted for the Low-Acid Canned Food Regulations following the Bon Vivant Vichyssoise Soup botulism incident, in which several people died after eating the soup, due to botulism poisoning. n 1980. WHO/ICMSF report on HACCP. n 1983 WHO Europe recommends HACCP. n 1985. The Food and Nutrition Board of the National Research Council/National Academy of Science published two books recommending that HACCP be used as a product safety system to ensure the production of safe food and for the broad application to various categories of non-canned food.
- 7. n 1989. The U.S. National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Food (NACMCF) developed and approved a standardized and updated HACCP system, endorsed by federal regulatory agencies responsible for food safety. n 1990s. The United Nations Codex Alimentarius Commission Food Hygiene standard embraced HACCP as an internationally accepted method for ensuring food safety by identifying hazards and monitoring their Critical Control Points in the process. n 1997. Codex Document on HACCP principles and application
- 8. n 1997 December. FDA’s Seafood HAACP program becomes mandatory. n 1998. FAO/WHO provide guidance for regulatory assessment of HACCP n 1998 January. HACCP becomes mandatory for large meat and poultry manufacturers. n 1999 January. HACCP becomes mandatory for small meat and poultry manufacturers. n 1999 May. A voluntary pilot study to test the implementation, evaluation, monitoring, and enforcement of the proposed National Conference of Interstate Milk Shipment HACCP program.
- 9. n 1999 September. HACCP becomes mandatory for frozen dessert manufacturers in the state of Ohio. n 2000 January. HACCP becomes mandatory for very small meat and poultry manufacturers. n 2002 January. The juice HACCP regulation begins to be mandatory for processors, small businesses, and very small businesses. n 2003. FAO/WHO develop HACCP guidelines. n 2004. EC 852/2004 requirement for all food businesses to adopt HACCP principles in EU.
- 10. n 2006. Legal requirements to apply HACCP in food businesses (other than primary production) across EU n 2006+. Increased worldwide use of HACCP in food safety legislation
- 11. n The HACCP system has grown to become the universally accepted method for food safety assurance. WHY ???
- 12. The need for an effective food safety assurance method n Foodborne disease are a widespread public health problem n Emergence of foodborne disease n Increased knowledge and awareness of the serious and chronic health effects n New food technologies and processing methods n Increased awareness of the economic consequences of foodborne disease
- 15. The need for an effective food safety assurance method n Increase in the number of vulnerable people n Industrialization and mass production n Urbanization n Changing lifestyle n Increase tourism and international trade in foodstuffs n Increase consumer awareness of food safety
- 16. HACCP Concept ASSURING FOOD SAFETY Emphasizing from end-product testing to preventive control of critical aspects of producing safe foods n Identifying potential food safety problems n Determining how and where these can be controlled or prevented n Describing what to do and training the personnel n Implementation and recording
- 17. n It is important to always remember that the establishment of effective HACCP programs involves primarily the application of good common sense and preventive considerations to address situations before they become problems. n The emphasis is on prediction rather than reaction, on getting the process right initially rather than correcting it after problems have occurred.
- 18. “Farm-To-Table” Assurance throughout the food chain
- 19. Stake holders involved in HACCP
- 20. The objectives of application of the HACCP system Reduction of costs of food analysis Reduction of losses due to product recall More efficient QA system Protection of reputation Prevention of foodborne illness
- 21. Other Advantageous n Focuses on identifying and preventing hazards from contaminating food, based on sound science. n Permits more efficient and effective government oversight, primarily because record keeping allows investigators to see how well a firm is complying with food safety laws over a period, rather than how well it is doing on any given day. n Helps food companies to compete more effectively in the world market. n Reduces barriers to international trade.
- 22. Guidelines for the application of HACCP system: 1. Assemble the HACCP team 2. Describe product 3. Identify intended use 4. Construct flow diagram 5. On-site verification of flow diagram 6. List all potential hazards, conduct a hazard analysis and determine control measures 7. Determine CCPs 8. Establish critical limits for each CCP 9. Establish a monitoring system for each CCP 10. Establish corrective actions 11. Establish verification procedures 12. Establish record keeping and documentation
- 23. The 7 principles of HACCP 1. Conduct a hazard analysis 2. Determine the CCPs 3. Establish critical limit(s) 4. Establish a monitoring system 5. Establish corrective actions 6. Establish verification procedures 7. Establish documentation Source: CODEX
- 24. 1. Assemble the HACCP Team A multi-disciplinary HACCP Team needs to include knowledge of the following aspects : n Raw Materials n Specialist (Quality Assurance/technical) n Operation activities n Engineering/ equipment technical knowledge of HACCP n Process n Finished product n Hazard expertise n Environment (premises, property, surroundings)
- 25. 2. Describe the product n Describe the product giving detail of its composition, physical/chemical structure, packaging, safety information, processing treatments, storage and method of distribution: • Product Name • Composition • End Product Characteristics • Method of Preservation • Packaging – Primary • Packaging – Shipping • Storage Conditions • Distribution Method • Shelf Life • Special Labeling • Customer Preparation
- 26. 3. Identify the intended use n Identify the intended use of the product, its target consumer with reference to sensitive population n Five sensitive groups in the population • Elderly • Infants • Pregnant • Sick; and • Immunocompromised
- 27. 4. Construct a process flow diagram n Details of all process activities including inspections, transportation, storage and delays in the process n Inputs into the process in terms of raw materials, packaging, water and chemicals n Output from the process e.g. waste – packaging, raw materials, product-in-progress, rework and rejected products.
- 28. 5. On site verification of the process flow diagram n It should be done by all members of the HACCP team during all stages and hours of operation. n Validate process flow diagram • By HACCP Team • Observe process flow • Sample activities • Interviews • Routine / non routine operations
