FAQs

What is HACCP? 

HACCP stands for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points. It establishes a system of procedures to safeguard food from microbial and toxic contamination. In other words, HACCP food safety ensures the cleanliness, safety, and quality of food handled and served in restaurants and other food establishments.

The HACCP approach to food safety rests on seven principles that must be followed for the system to work: 

  1. Conduct hazard analysis 
  2. Identify critical control points 
  3. Establish critical limits for each critical control point 
  4. Establish critical control point monitoring requirements 
  5. Establish corrective actions 
  6. Establish procedures for ensuring the HACCP system is working as intended 
  7. Establish record keeping procedures 

What are your subject matter expert’s qualifications? 

Dr. Snyder has worked as a food safety educator, researcher, and consultant in the Army, at the University of Minnesota, and as a consultant for over 50 years. His goal is to help operators improve the quality and safety of their operations through a better understanding of the processes while simplifying food preparation procedures and reducing cost. 

As an Army officer, Dr. Snyder commanded Quartermaster field units and developed radiation-sterilized food and microwave systems. While Associate Professor at the University of Minnesota, he began Minnesota's food management HACCP self-control program. Currently, he helps foodservice operators to implement HACCP safety self-control programs while working to standardize retail HACCP. He has lectured in the U.S., Mid-East, Australia, and Europe; has published widely on retail food safety topics such as safe hand washing, and has been an expert witness in foodborne illness and food safety lawsuits. 

What is Seafood HACCP?

All wholesale processors and distributors of seafood must perform a hazard analysis and implement a HACCP plan covering all risks identified in the inspection. Additionally, seafood manufacturers must adhere to Good Manufacturing Practices (21 CFR 117), Seafood HACCP (21 CFR 123) and all applicable state regulations.
