What is HACCP and Who Needs it?
HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point) is a systematic approach to the identification, evaluation, and control of food safety hazards. HACCP was developed in the 1960s for the space program. HACCP requires a processor to evaluate its operations using HACCP principles and, if necessary, to develop and implement HACCP systems (i.e., a system of preventive control measures based upon HACCP principles) for its operations.
HACCP programs are mandatory for seafood and juice products regulated by FDB and for meat products under the jurisdiction of the USDA. The following processes of preparing food also require a HACCP in place:
- Sous vide/vacuum sealing
- Curing/charcuterie
- Pickling
- Juice pasteurization
- Displaying live shellfish tanks
- Sous vide cooking
