HACCP Level 1 - 2 Intense Training 16th of October 2020

What is HACCP?

The word HACCP (Hazard Analysis & Critical Control Point) confuses many people but, simply put, it refers to procedures you must put in place to ensure the food you produce is safe. These procedures make up your food safety management system based on the principles of HACCP.

​

Who should take this course?

​

Anyone working in a Food environment should be HACCP trained from retail to industry. Food Handlers and their employers have a legal duty to manage Food Safety. These obligations are set out by a number of EU and Irish Laws. Failing to follow food safety standards can cause food to become contaminated with potentially fatal consequences.

​

This course will start by covering some of the key terms you will need to understand before moving on to identifying critical control points and analysing some of the key hazards. It will show you how to determine control points and how to avoid cross-contamination in the food chain. It will also cover some of the control measures that can be taken along with how to address a problem if a critical limit is breached.

Towards the end of the course all this will be brought together by taking you step by step through the implementation of HACCP and see how the 7 principles of HACCP are integrated into the whole process.

​

Courses can be run in in our Covid-19 Safe Dundalk Local traingin centre, on-site and on-line
