• This is what we have been doing for years, we just called it Good Hygiene Practice (GHP).

• Now it is called

HACCP

This is a system for FOOD SAFETY and it will be inspected by Dubai Municipality

27

HACCP• The American Space Agency – NASA – was anxious to ensure that astronauts did not

get ill from the food they were eating.

• The Pillsbury Company were commissioned to devise a way of guaranteeing safe food based on prevention and not relying on expensive end product testing

• They devised the HACCP system

• How does HACCP work ?

• HACCP works by systematically considering each step in any food business and identifyingwhat hazards to food safety might be present at the step.

• The company then decides how to control what happens at each step to eliminate thehazards or reduce them to an acceptable level.

• It is important to understand that HACCP only concerns food safety. Quality issues such asappearance of the product are not considered
