HACCP stands for hazard analysis critical control point, a program designed for food-production premises. This program identifies potential hazards, and critical steps at which control should be applied to prevent or eliminate a food safety hazard or reduce it to an acceptable level.
A food safety and self-inspection system that highlights potentially hazardous foods and how they are handled in the food service environment.
(The Handwashing Leadership Forum(tm)) Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point. A food quality assurance system that identifies, evaluates and controls potentially hazardous foods and handling practices in the food industry. A HACCP plan is a written document based on HACCP principles to insure the safe delivery of food.
(FDA) HACCP is a management system in which food safety is addressed through the analysis and control of biological, chemical and physical hazards from raw material production, procurement and handling, to manufacturing, distribution and consumption of the finished product. HACCP is designed for use in all segments of the food industry from growing, harvesting, processing, manufacturing, distributing and merchandising to preparing food for consumption. Note: All definitions of HACCP, regardless of their differences in wording, include the seven principles of the HACCP system: Principle 1. Conduct a hazard analysis. Principle 2. Determine the Critical Control Points (CCPs). Principle 3. Establish critical limits. Principle 4. Establish a system to monitor control of the CCP. Principle 5. Establish the corrective action to be taken when monitoring indicates that a particular CCP is not under control. Principle 6. Establish procedures for verification to confirm that the HACCP system is working effectively. Principle 7. Establish documentation concerning all procedures and records appropriate to these principles and their application.
process of quality control mandated by the FDA
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point. A system used to identify, evaluate and control hazards by identifying potentially unsafe links in the food processing chain.
Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Point
means Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point.
means Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points.
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point system based on science and logic which identifies hazards in food production and establishes preventative measured for their control. A plan outlining this system for a food production process is called a HACCP plan.
Hazard Analysis at Critical Control Points
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point, an internationally recognized and recommended approach to food safety that anticipates and prevents hazards associated with ingredients.
An acronym that stands for Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point, a systematic, science-based approach used in food production as a means to assure food safety. The concept is built upon the seven principles identified by the National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods (1992) [U.S.]. (3)
Process control systems based on HACCP principles place emphasis on preventing food safety hazards from occurring during production, as opposed to detecting defects during end product inspection. HACCP implementation requires industry to define hazards specific to each process or product line, to identify points in the process where hazards can occur and where control can be exercised (critical control points or CCPs), define control limits, conduct regular monitoring, maintain records of results and corrective actions taken. Government's role is to audit records and verify compliance through an effective inspection program.
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (a quality assurance and inspection technique)
The process of identifying the hazards (hazard analysis) present in a process and determining critical points throughout the process (critical control points) at which loss of control would result in the presence of a hazard posing a serious risk to human health.
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point. a concept applied in food processing and other operations within the production-to-consumption food system where points critical to the safety of a food are identified and systematically monitored and controlled to prevent creation of a hazardous product.
a structured approach to identifying food safety problems within individual food businesses, and to controlling these problems
Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points quality control system
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points. A self-evaluation system for identifying the most critical steps of a process with respect to food safety and their appropriate management. Within the EU, the system is usually inspected and approved by local food authorities.
The underlying approach under HACCP for preventing foodborne illness and promote quality is to identify the danger spots and try to avoid them. Instead of putting the burden on government to discover that a food safety problem exists, HACCP shifts responsibility onto the industry to ensure that the food it produces is safe. Food producers will have to prevent bacterial contamination from occurring in the first place. HACCP works by the following principles: Identify the likely health hazards to consumers in a given product. Identify the critical points in the processing where the hazards may occur. Establish safety measures to prevent the hazard from occurring. Monitor to make sure the safety measures are working. Establish an appropriate remedy if monitoring shows a problem. Establish detailed record keeping to document monitoring and remedies taken. Verify that the whole system is working.
Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points: a category of U.S. Food and Drug Administration food safety regulations, and requires labor-intensive monitoring of cooking processes in food processing plants and in food service establishments
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) is a preventive system of food control. It involves examining and analysing every stage of a food-related operation to identify and assess hazards; determining the 'critical control points' at which action is required to control the identified hazards; establishing the critical limits that must be met at, and procedures to monitor, each critical control point; establishing corrective procedures when a deviation is identified by monitoring; documentation of the HACCP plan and verification procedures to establish that it is working correctly.
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point. A Food Safety Assurance System, originally developed for the NASA Space Programme.
Hazard Analysis, Critical Control Points - a system that manages the risk associated with food safety aspects of production. The HACCP plan is based on seven principles identified in the Codex Guidelines for the Application of Hazard System adopted by the 20th Session of the Joint Food and Agricultural Organisation and World Health Organisation Codex Alimentarius Commission 1993.
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point, which is an internationally recognized system for ensuring that food products are safe and wholesome to eat.
Hazard analysis critical control points. Protocol adopted by Codex for controlling outbreaks of contaminated foods. The USDA and FDA are working to integrate Codex guidelines into U.S. regulations. This could affect dietary supplements for specific cases where food bacteria or other extreme conditions infiltrate a supply.
The letters stand for "Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point".
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point: the systematic identification and management of risks associated with the manufacture, distribution and use of food ingredients.
The initials stand for the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points system. This system was developed in 1996 and is preferred by food safety professionals around the world and is widely viewed as critical to food safety because it helps prevent food contamination by identifying potentially unsafe links in the food processing chain. We want to avoid the discomforts of the medieval world
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point - a system which identifies specific hazards and preventative measures for their control.
hazard analysis of critical control points; a quality management system that identifies critical points in production and sets up measures to ensure nothing to affect the safety of the product happens at these points.
