FOOD SAFETY GUIDELINES

Safe food handling practices to prevent food-borne illness is of critical importance to the health and safety of your customers. HACCP, an acronym for Hazard Analysis (at) Critical Control Points, is a quality control program of operating procedures to assure food integrity, quality, and safety. Taking steps necessary to augment food safety practices are both cost effective and relatively simple. While HACCP guidelines go far beyond the scope of this booklet, additional information is available by contacting the USDA/FDA Food-borne Illness Education Information Center.

SUMMARY

In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration has a published Food Code as a reference guide for the prevention of food-borne illness in retail outlets such as restaurants, institutions and grocery stores. Provisions of this Food Code are compatible with the concept and terminology of Hazard Analysis (at) Critical Control Points (HACCP) and contains expanded provisions for food safety. The FDA publication, along with local codes, should be the final word with regard to all issues regarding food safety and sanitation in the U.S. For more information contact:
