What is HACCP Certification in Singapore?

Number of companies who have benefited from our services for ISO & bizsafe

Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) is a food safety programme based on the principle of fault avoidance. It is a scientific, rational and systematic approach that helps businesses in Singapore identify, assess and control hazards from raw material production to final product use. It consists of 7 principles that outline how your organisation can establish, implement and maintain a HACCP plan.

 
 

Principles of HACCP

  1. Perform a hazard analysis: Identify and assess potential food safety hazards that could make food unsafe for consumption and devise appropriate preventive measures to control them.
  2. Identify critical control points (CCPs): Determine specific points, steps, or procedures in the manufacturing process where control measures can be implemented to prevent, eliminate, or reduce food safety hazards to an acceptable level.
  3. Establish critical limits for each CCP: Define the maximum or minimum threshold that hazards must be controlled within to ensure food safety.
  4. Establish monitoring requirements for CCPs: Implement ongoing monitoring activities to ensure that the process remains within the CCP and the necessary controls are in place and functioning as intended.
  5. Define corrective actions: Define actions to be taken when monitoring indicates a deviation from critical limits to prevent the distribution of unsafe or adulterated products.
  6. Determine procedures for ensuring the effectiveness of the HACCP system: Validate and verify the effectiveness of the HACCP system. 
  7. Establish record-keeping procedures: Maintain necessary documentation to demonstrate compliance with Singapore’s regulatory requirements and provide evidence of a well-functioning HACCP system.

Frequently Asked Questions About HACCP in Singapore

1. Is HACCP and ISO the same thing?

No, HACCP and ISO (International Organisation for Standardisation) are not the same. HACCP is a systematic approach to food safety, while ISO refers to a series of standards covering various aspects of quality management, including ISO 9001 for quality management systems.

2. What is the difference between HACCP and food safety plan?

HACCP is a specific methodology for identifying and controlling hazards in food production. It focuses on critical control points in the process. A food safety plan, on the other hand, is a comprehensive document that helps companies in Singapore outline the overall approach and procedures for ensuring food safety in their organisation.
