Reseña del editor

The purpose of this text is to explain what HACCP really is and what it can do for any food business. It leads the reader through the accepted international approach to HACCP and shows how to do it, from start to finish of the initial study, through to continuous maintenance of your system. The information given within the book may also be used as a basis for developing a HACCP training programme. The second edition takes account of a number of changes in the HACCP field in the intervening four years. The Codex "HACCP system and guidelines" has been updated and republished and increased experience in the practicalities of HACCP worldwide has led to changes in the way it is applied.
