In Saudi Arabia, business establishments in the food sector must consider HACCP certification as an important measure to guarantee food safety and to meet the domestic and global food-related standards. Introducing the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) system, we can make businesses minimize the risks of food safety, avert food poisoning, and comply with the most rigorous food safety standards.
What is HACCP Certification?
HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points) is one of the most significant standards in the food safety management system, which adopts a structured method of hazard identification, assessment, and control in the food chain in KSA. Whether it is a physical, chemical, or biological hazard, it has to be determined throughout the intake of raw materials till it is consumed.
The HACCP plan will require the organization to identify critical control points at which food can be exposed to risks and exercise effective controls in ensuring that the processes are free of contamination. It is centered on addressing the demands of the seven principles, which are directed to the establishment of a functional system that comprises clear record maintenance and the capability to institute counter measures.
Many people believe this practice to be crucial to which an organization ensures compliance, protection of human health, and quality of foods throughout the process.
