**Hazard analysis and critical control points** (**HACCP**; [/ˈhæsʌp/](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/English))[1] is a systematic preventive approach to [food safety](/source/Food_safety) from [biological](/source/Biological_hazard), [chemical](/source/Chemical_hazard), and physical [hazards](/source/Hazard) in production processes that can cause the finished product to be unsafe and designs measures to reduce these risks to a safe level. In this manner, HACCP attempts to avoid hazards rather than attempting to inspect finished products for the effects of those hazards. The HACCP system can be used at all stages of a [food chain](/source/Food_chain), from [food production](/source/Food_processing) and preparation processes including packaging, distribution, etc.

The [Food and Drug Administration](/source/United_States_Food_and_Drug_Administration) (FDA) and the [United States Department of Agriculture](/source/United_States_Department_of_Agriculture) (USDA) require mandatory HACCP programs for [juice](/source/Juice) and [meat](/source/Meat) as an effective approach to [food safety](/source/Food_safety) and protecting [public health](/source/Public_health). Meat HACCP systems are regulated by the USDA, while [seafood](/source/Seafood) and juice are regulated by the FDA. All other food companies in the [United States](/source/United_States) that are required to register with the FDA under the [Public Health Security and Bioterrorism Preparedness and Response Act](/source/Public_Health_Security_and_Bioterrorism_Preparedness_and_Response_Act) of 2002, as well as firms outside the US that export food to the US, are transitioning to mandatory [hazard analysis and risk-based preventive controls](/source/Hazard_analysis_and_risk-based_preventive_controls) (HARPC) plans.[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]

HACCP itself was conceived in the 1960s when the US [National Aeronautics and Space Administration](/source/National_Aeronautics_and_Space_Administration) (NASA) asked [Pillsbury](/source/Pillsbury_Company) to design and manufacture the first foods for space flights. Since then, HACCP has been recognized internationally as a logical tool for adapting traditional inspection methods to a modern, science-based, food safety system. Based on risk-assessment, HACCP plans allow both industry and government to allocate their resources efficiently by establishing and auditing safe food production practices. In 1994, the organization [International HACCP Alliance](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=International_HACCP_Alliance&action=edit&redlink=1) was established, initially to assist the US meat and poultry industries with implementing HACCP. As of 2007, its membership spread over other professional and industrial areas.[2]

## History

In the early 1960s, a collaborated effort between the [Pillsbury Company](/source/Pillsbury_Company), NASA, and the U.S. Army Laboratories began with the objective to provide [safe food for space expeditions](/source/Space_food). People involved in this collaboration included Herbert Hollander, [Mary Klicka](/source/Mary_Klicka), and Hamed El-Bisi of the [United States Army Laboratories](/source/United_States_Army_Natick_Soldier_Research%2C_Development_and_Engineering_Center) in [Natick, Massachusetts](/source/Natick%2C_Massachusetts), Paul A. Lachance of the [Manned Spacecraft Center](/source/Lyndon_B._Johnson_Space_Center) in [Houston, Texas](/source/Houston%2C_Texas), and Howard E. Baumann representing Pillsbury as its lead scientist.[3]

To ensure that the food sent to space was safe, Lachance imposed strict [microbial](/source/Microbiology) requirements, including [pathogen](/source/Pathogen) limits (including *[E. coli](/source/Escherichia_coli)*, *[Salmonella](/source/Salmonella)*, and *[Clostridium botulinum](/source/Clostridium_botulinum)*).[3] Using the traditional end product testing method, it was soon realized that almost all of the food manufactured was being used for testing and very little was left for actual use. Therefore, a new approach was needed.[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]

NASA's own requirements for critical control points (CCP) in [engineering management](/source/Engineering_management) would be used as a guide for food safety. CCP derived from [failure mode and effects analysis](/source/Failure_mode_and_effects_analysis) (FMEA) from NASA via the [munitions](/source/Munition) industry to test weapon and engineering system [reliability](/source/Reliability_(engineering)). Using that information, NASA and Pillsbury required contractors to identify "critical failure areas" and eliminate them from the system, a first in the food industry then. Baumann, a microbiologist by training, was so pleased with Pillsbury's experience in the space program that he advocated for his company to adopt what would become HACCP at Pillsbury.[3]

Soon, Pillsbury was confronted with a food safety issue of its own when [glass](/source/Glass) contamination was found in [farina](/source/Farina_(food)), a [cereal](/source/Cereal) commonly used in [infant](/source/Infant) food. Baumann's leadership promoted HACCP in Pillsbury for producing commercial foods, and applied to its own food production. This led to a panel discussion at the 1971 National Conference on Food Protection that included examining CCPs and [good manufacturing practices](/source/Good_manufacturing_practice) in producing safe foods. Several [botulism](/source/Botulism) cases were attributed to under-processed low-acid [canned](/source/Canning) foods in 1970–71. The [United States Food and Drug Administration](/source/United_States_Food_and_Drug_Administration) (FDA) asked Pillsbury to organize and conduct a training program on the inspection of canned foods for FDA inspectors. This 21-day program was first held in September 1972 with 11 days of classroom lecture and 10 days of canning plant evaluations.[3] Canned food regulations ([21](/source/Title_21_of_the_Code_of_Federal_Regulations) [CFR](/source/Code_of_Federal_Regulations) 108, 21 CFR 110, 21 CFR 113, and 21 CFR 114)[4] were first published in 1969. Pillsbury's training program, which was submitted to the FDA for review in 1969, entitled "Food Safety through the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point System" was the first use of the acronym HACCP.[3]

HACCP was initially set on three principles, now shown as principles one, two, and four in the section below.[5] Pillsbury quickly adopted two more principles, numbers three and five, to its own company in 1975. It was further supported by the [National Academy of Sciences](/source/United_States_National_Academy_of_Sciences) (NAS) when they wrote that the FDA inspection agency should transform itself from reviewing plant records into an HACCP system compliance [auditor](/source/Auditor).[6]

Over the period 1986 to 1990, a team consisting of [National Sea Products](/source/National_Sea_Products) and the [Department of Fisheries and Oceans](/source/Department_of_Fisheries_and_Oceans) developed the first mandatory food inspection programme based on HACCP principles in the world. Together, these Canadian innovators developed and implemented a [Total Quality Management Program](/source/Total_Quality_Management) and HACCP plans for all their [groundfish trawlers](/source/Groundfish_trawlers) and production facilities.[7]

A second proposal by the NAS led to the development of the [National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods](/source/National_Advisory_Committee_on_Microbiological_Criteria_for_Foods) (NACMCF) in 1987. NACMCF was initially responsible for defining HACCP's systems and guidelines for its application and were coordinated with the [Codex Alimentarius](/source/Codex_Alimentarius) [Committee for Food Hygiene](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Committee_for_Food_Hygiene&action=edit&redlink=1), that led to reports starting in 1992 and further harmonization in 1997. By 1997, the seven HACCP principles listed below became the standard.[3]

A year earlier, the [American Society for Quality](/source/American_Society_for_Quality) offered their first certifications for HACCP Auditors.[8] First known as Certified Quality Auditor-HACCP, they were changed to Certified HACCP Auditor (CHA) in 2004.[9]

HACCP expanded in all realms of the food industry, going into meat, poultry, seafood, dairy, and has spread now from the farm to the fork.[3]

## Principles

The 7 principles of HACCP

1. Conduct a hazard analysis 1. Plan to determine the food safety hazards and identify the preventive measures that can be applied to control these hazards. A food safety hazard is any biological, chemical, or physical property that may cause a food to be unsafe for human consumption.

1. Identify critical control points 1. A [critical control point](/source/Critical_control_point) (CCP) is a point, step, or procedure in a food manufacturing process at which control can be applied and, as a result, a food safety hazard can be prevented, eliminated, or reduced to an acceptable level.

1. Establish critical limits for each critical control point 1. A critical limit is the maximum or minimum value to which a physical, biological, or chemical hazard must be controlled at a critical control point to prevent, eliminate, or reduce that hazard to an acceptable level.

1. Establish critical control point monitoring requirements 1. Monitoring activities are necessary to ensure that the process is under control at each critical control point. In the United States, the [FSIS](/source/FSIS) requires that each monitoring procedure and its frequency be listed in the HACCP plan.

1. Establish corrective actions 1. These are actions to be taken when monitoring indicates a deviation from an established critical limit. The final rule requires a plant's HACCP plan to identify the corrective actions to be taken if a critical limit is not met. Corrective actions are intended to ensure that no product is injurious to health or otherwise adulterated as a result if the deviation enters commerce.

1. Establish procedures for ensuring the HACCP system is working as intended 1. Validation ensures that the plans do what they were designed to do; that is, they are successful in ensuring the production of a safe product. Plants will be required to validate their own HACCP plans. FSIS will not approve HACCP plans in advance, but will review them for conformance with the final rule. 1. [Verification](/source/Verification_and_validation) ensures the HACCP plan is adequate, that is, working as intended. Verification procedures may include such activities as review of HACCP plans, CCP records, critical limits and microbial sampling and analysis. FSIS is requiring that the HACCP plan include verification tasks to be performed by plant personnel. Verification tasks would also be performed by FSIS inspectors. Both FSIS and industry will undertake microbial testing as one of several verification activities. 1. Verification also includes 'validation' – the process of finding evidence for the accuracy of the HACCP system (e.g. scientific evidence for critical limitations).

1. Establish record keeping procedures 1. The HACCP regulation requires that all plants maintain certain documents, including its hazard analysis and written HACCP plan, and records documenting the monitoring of critical control points, critical limits, verification activities, and the handling of processing deviations. Implementation involves monitoring, verifying, and validating of the daily work that is compliant with regulatory requirements in all stages all the time. The differences among those three types of work are given by Saskatchewan Agriculture and Food.

## Standards

The seven HACCP principles are included in the [international standard](/source/International_standard) [ISO 22000](/source/ISO_22000). This [standard](/source/Technical_standard) is a complete food safety and quality[10] management system incorporating the elements of prerequisite programmes(GMP & SSOP),[10] HACCP and the quality management system, which together form an organization's Total Quality Management system.[11]

Other schemes with recognition from the Global Food Safety Initiative ([GFSI](/source/GFSI)), such as Safe Quality Food Institute's SQF Code, also relies upon the HACCP methodology as the basis for developing and maintaining food safety (level 2) and food quality (level 3) plans and programs in concert with the fundamental prerequisites of [good manufacturing practices](/source/Good_manufacturing_practice).[12]

## Training

Training for developing and implementing HACCP food safety management system are offered by several quality assurance companies.[13][14][15] However, [ASQ](/source/American_Society_for_Quality) does provide a Trained HACCP Auditor (CHA) exam to individuals seeking professional training.[16] In the UK the [Chartered Institute of Environmental Health](/source/Chartered_Institute_of_Environmental_Health) (CIEH)[17] and Royal Society for Public Health offer HACCP for Food Manufacturing qualifications, accredited by the QCA (Qualifications and Curriculum Authority).[18]

## Application

Consequent to the promulgation of US Seafood Regulation on HACCP on 18 December 1995, it became mandatory that every processor exporting to USA to comply with HACCP with effect from 18.12.1997. The Marine Products Export Development Authority of India (MPEDA)[19] constituted an HACCP Cell in early 1996 to assist the Indian seafood industry in the effective implementation of HACCP. Technical personnel of MPEDA are trained in India and abroad on various aspects of HACCP including HACCP Audit.[20]

- Fish and fishery products

- Fresh-cut produce[21]

- Juice and nectar products[22]

- Food outlets[23]

- Meat and poultry products[24]

- School food and services[25]

## Water quality management

The use of HACCP for water [quality management](/source/Quality_management) was first proposed in 1994.[26] Thereafter, a number of water quality initiatives applied HACCP principles and steps to the control of [infectious disease](/source/Infectious_disease) from [water](/source/Water), and provided the basis for the [Water Safety Plan](/source/Water_Safety_Plan) (WSP) approach in the third edition of the WHO *Guidelines for Drinking-water Quality* report.[27] This WSP has been described as "a way of adapting the HACCP approach to drinking water systems".[28]

### Water quality management programme guidelines

Program Modernization: According to Ongley, 1998, a series of steps could be taken to execute a more useful transition – from technical programmes to policy to management decisions. Various aspects of the modernization process have been discussed by Ongley in ESCAP (1997):[29]

- Policy reform – A consultative process must define all the policy tenets and should review the execution of the said policy tenets.

- Legal reform – Legal reform with respect to water quality management is one of the most crucial elements. This could be addressed by the creation of national data standards as well as the creation of a national process to analyze and review collected data.

- Institutional reform – This is a complex issue and has no simple answers. Still, there are some key principles that can be helpful for institutional reform in light of water quality management. One of them is water quality monitoring as a service function. Apart from that, both technical efficiency and capacity issues emerge as major factors in reformed water quality programs.

- Technical reform – This is the area that garners the most attention as well as investment. Such a reform targets facility modernization, including other co-factors like data programmes/networks, technical innovation, data management/data products and remediation.

## HACCP for building water systems

Hazards associated with water systems in buildings include physical, chemical and microbial hazards. In 2013, NSF International, a public health and safety NGO, established education, training and certification programs in HACCP for building water systems. In 2013, NSF International, a public health and safety NGO, established education, training and certification programs in HACCP for building water systems. The programs were developed by subject matter experts and center on the use of HACCP principles adapted to the specific requirements of domestic (hot and cold) and utility water systems in buildings, to prevent plumbing-associated hazards from harming people. Hazards addressed include scalding, lead, and disinfection byproducts as well as a range of clinically-important pathogens, such as *[Legionella](/source/Legionella)*, *[Pseudomonas](/source/Pseudomonas)*, [nontuberculous mycobacteria](/source/Nontuberculous_mycobacteria) (NTM). Early adopters of HACCP for building water systems include leading healthcare institutions, notably the [Mayo Clinic](/source/Mayo_Clinic) in [Rochester, Minnesota](/source/Rochester%2C_Minnesota).[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]

## ISO 22000 Food Safety Management System

[ISO 22000](/source/ISO_22000) is a [standard](/source/Technical_standard) designed to help augment HACCP on issues related to food safety. Although several companies, especially big ones, have either implemented or are on the point of implementing [ISO 22000](/source/ISO_22000), there are many others which are hesitant to do so. The main reason behind that is the lack of information and the fear that the new standard is too demanding in terms of bureaucratic work.[30] [ISO 22000](/source/ISO_22000) references the [Codex Alimentarius](/source/Codex_Alimentarius) General Principles of Food Hygiene, CXC 1-1969[31] which includes [HACCP](/source/HACCP) principles and 12 [HACCP](/source/HACCP) application steps. This is explained in a joint publication from [ISO](/source/ISO) and [United Nations Industrial Development Organization](/source/United_Nations_Industrial_Development_Organization) (UNIDO) [32] which provides guidance to assist all organizations (including small and medium-sized) that recognize the potential benefits of implementing a [Food Safety Management System](/source/Food_Safety_Management_System).
