FOOD SAFTY
• The most common template (tool) for a food safety plan follows principles laid out under a program called HACCP
• Back in 1959, the US space agency NASA faced a simple but mundane problem when planning its first manned space flights: How and what was it going to feed astronauts ?
• The American food company Pillsbury (now part of General Mills) was called into help.
HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Points
The History of HACCP

NASA concluded…..“With standard QC..No way we could be sure that there would not be a problem”
“Our present QC system is testing Raw Material and Finished Product”
“Sampling and testing of each batch of food is impractical”
• How did they know that the Food is Safe?
• Is End Product Testing Sufficient?• How Many Samples to Test?

FOOD SAFTY
• HACCP was developed by Pillsbury Company (USA) in 1959• The HACCP concept was pioneered in the 1960s by the Pillsbury Company,
the US Army and NASA as a collaborative development for the production of safe foods for the United States space program.
• 1973 Pillsbury published comprehensive document on Hazard Analysis• 1974 - FDA used HACCP principles in development of low-acid regulations.• 1980’s – major food companies began to utilize HACCP Principles• 1993 the Codex Alimentarius Commission adopted Guidelines for the
application of the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system – to include 7 Principles. Further updates were provided in 1997.
• The HACCP system for food safety is now adopted as national guidelines or required regulations in many countries.
This PepsiCo International HACCP Training is based on
1997 Codex and NACMCSF HACCP 1997 Guidelines

HACCP is a Tool
• Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) is a tool and is not designed to be a stand alone program.
• To be effective, other tools must include: adherence to good manufacturing practices, sanitation standard operating procedures, and a personal hygiene program.

Why is Food Safety so Important ?
• More countries will incorporate Food Safety principles into their food legislations
• Food Safety Plans will be made mandatory for more categories of products
• In the long run, food business operations not based on Food Safety will not be acceptable by the industry, consumers, government and other stakeholders

Roles & Responsibilities
• Management commitment• A clear understanding of the principles of

training• Allocate resources for implementation• Take ownership of the Food Safety
system• The need to share experiences with other
sectors to ensure that adequate provision is made for food safety.

• HACCP will work well if supported by other sound practices• Need to evaluate these practices and activities• Deficiencies and gaps in existing systems need to be identified• “Gap Analysis” will help to identify these so that a complete
framework exists on which to build the HACCP system
Evaluation of Pre-requisites in place
• Completed pre-requisite programmes need to be validated in the same way as HACCP to confirm their effectiveness
• Procedures for verification will include audit, inspections, testing and analysis• Documentation and records are required

Role of Quality Pre-requisites
• Key quality systems need to be in place to ensure an effective HACCP system
• HACCP plans should only cover food safety not quality
• There is an essential relationship between quality and food safety programmes, but……..

HACCP Introduction VERSION 1 : November 2010
HACCP Introduction

FOOD SAFTY
Principle 1 - Hazard Analysis
• Identify the potential hazard(s) associated with food production at all stages, from primary production, processing, manufacture and distribution until the point of consumption.
• A flow diagram of the complete process is important in conducting the hazard analysis. The significant hazards associated with each specific step of the manufacturing process are listed.
If you don’t know what the hazards are, then find out !
HACCP Introduction VERSION 1 : November 2010
HACCP Introduction
32
FOOD SAFTY
Principle 2 - Identified CCP’s
• Determine the points, procedures or operational steps that can be controlled to eliminate the hazard(s) or minimize its (their) likelihood of occurrence.
• A "stepstep" means any stage in food production and/or manufacture including the receipt and/or production of raw materials, transport, formulation, processing, storage, etc.
Failure at a CCP has a directimpact on food safety !
HACCP Introduction VERSION 1 : November 2010
HACCP Introduction
33
FOOD SAFTY
Principle 3 - Establish Critical Limits
• Establish critical limit(s) which must be met to ensure the CCP is under control.
• Critical limits are the operational boundaries of the CCPs which control the food safety hazard(s).
• All CCP's must have preventive measures which are measurable!
• The criteria for the critical limits are determined ahead of time in consultation with competent authorities.
Unless you can MEASURE, you can’t control!
HACCP Introduction VERSION 1 : November 2010
HACCP Introduction
34
FOOD SAFTY
Principle - 4 Monitor CCP’s
• Establish a system to monitor control of the CCP by scheduled testing or observations.
• It allows processors to assess trends before a loss of control occurs. Adjustments can be made while continuing the process.
• The monitoring interval must be adequate to ensure reliable control of the process.
Monitoring is effective data collection to enable decision making!
HACCP Introduction VERSION 1 : November 2010
HACCP Introduction
35
FOOD SAFTY
Principle - 5 Establish Corrective Action• Establish the corrective action to be taken
when monitoring indicates that a particular CCP is not under control.
• HACCP is intended to prevent product or process deviations. However, should loss of control occur, there must be definite steps in place for disposition of the product and for correction of the process.
• These must be pre-planned and written
Failure requires: stopping the process, hold the products, correcting the problem
and recording the action!
HACCP Introduction VERSION 1 : November 2010
HACCP Introduction
36
FOOD SAFTY
Principle - 6 Verification
• Establish procedures for verification to confirm that the HACCP system is working effectively
• The system should be subject to periodic revalidation using independent audits or other verification procedures.
Proving the system is effectiveand product is safe!
HACCP Introduction VERSION 1 : November 2010
HACCP Introduction
37
FOOD SAFTY
Principle - 7 Record Keeping
• The HACCP system requires the preparation and maintenance of a written HACCP plan together with other documentation.
• Usually, the simplest record keeping system possible to ensure effectiveness is the most desirable.
“Not documented, it did not happen”Not documented -it did not happen!

A Risk Assessment Model should be used
so that the risk assessment can be as objective
as possible and to enable the ‘ranking’ of
hazards as to their importance

Preventing or reducing hazards - key questions
• Is this controlled by a pre-requisite GMP programme?
• Is there equipment or processing which prevents the hazards being present at later stages?
• If we cannot prevent the hazard occurring, is our only option to monitor potential contamination to ensure that unsafe product cannot leave our factory?

Monitoring:Filters/Screens are inspected (i) present and (ii) intact, at a defined frequency. Abnormal extraneous material with potential risks found on intact screens are noted for root cause and investigative proposes (i.e. gaskets, plastic, glass, or metal fragments)
Corrective Action:• If filter/screen is not (i) present or (ii) intact during verification, put the product produced since the last acceptable check on hold, stop the process, and replace with functional filter/screen.• Notify designated quality employee to determine disposition of the product. Establish statistical sampling plan to evaluate likelihood of hazard in product and for the disposition of product. Corrective action and disposition records must be documented.
Documentation:• Filter/Screen Inspection Log• Extraneous Material Log• Hold and Release Records• Corrective Action Records• Verification Records
