Understanding the HACCP Approach
Originally developed by NASA in the 1960s and later endorsed by FAO and WHO, HACCP focuses on preventing hazards before they occur rather than inspecting finished products. This science-based system identifies biological, chemical, physical, and allergenic risks, ensuring safety throughout every stage of food production. Its preventive, risk-based framework offers measurable improvements in food safety, operational efficiency, and regulatory compliance.
