Produktbeschreibung

The successful first edition of HACCP: A Practical Approach has established itself as the definitive text on HACCP for the food industry. In an easy-to-read style, it gives a step-by-step approach to developing an effective HACCP system. In this new edition authors bring us up to date with current thinking, including the use of more modular HACCP systems and even generic HACCP in some sectors. Greater attention is paid to planning and implementation, and the theory is illustrated with a completely new set of case studies from UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, South America and Asia. It is an invaluable text for everyone who needs to know what HACCP really is, what it can do for a food business, and the best way to build an effective system.

Rezensionen

Mortimore and Wallace point out that since they last updated the book there have continued to be many failures in the food supply chain. Some of these are world renowned, many were significant national failures, and many, many more were small, isolated, and sometimes tragic events occurring in local communities all around the world. So what has gone wrong? Is HACCP not working? Sadly, the answer to this question is that it hasn't had a chance to work. Far from being "done," HACCP has been poorly implemented and under-utilized in probably the majority of food companies. Twenty years ago developments in HACCP were fairly major, and some governments saw its implementation as a remedy for all of their country's food safety issues. In reality, use of the HACCP approach does offer a practical and major contribution to the way forward, but only if the people charged with its implementation have the proper knowledge and expertise to apply it effectively. Whilst a new book isn't by itself going to solve that problem, the authors hope that it may help some companies to do better.
