implementing quality assurance and safety management systems. In response to consumer pressure, many industries adopted Hazard analysis and critical control point (HACCP) system because it is well known preventative, cost effective system if implemented effectively, as well as it is required by law. HACCP can be identified as a systematic scheme to identify, evaluate and control the hazards. It can be applied to many types of products and processes from primary production to consumption (From farm to fork)
at temperatures between 7 and 37°C (AFFCO, 2003). This growth range is referred to as the mesophile window, or the range where enteric pathogens are able to proliferate readily (AFFCO, 2003). Meat processing plants are therefore able to adequately control bacterial growth during the production process by regulating the product temperature. MPI imposes regulations for carcass and product cooling where all meat processors follow standard time/temperature regimes and/or meat Process Hygiene Index (NZFSA
meat and poultry production is of paramount importance. Contaminated meat or poultry products present health hazards to the consumers. Bacteria, viruses and parasites as well as chemical residues present in meat and poultry products present health hazards to consumers. It is important that anyone practicing sheep production to understand application of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) in meat production as well as the chemical residues in meat that are of health significant. Sheep production
consists of everything from food processing plants to fast food restaurants. The food industry affects nearly every living person. Most people don't realize how important this industry is and how it affects their everyday lives. That is why it is so critical that the products of this industry are at their highest quality, are free of bacteria and ensure that the consumer will not face any detrimental consequences. Total Quality Management (TQM) plays a big role in promising these results. Total
have a Food Protection Manager’s certification. Then, all employees should be trained in the food service operations Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system. The International HACCP Alliance (2014) says, “HACCP is a process control system that identifies where hazards might occur in the food production process and puts into place stringent actions to prevent hazards from occurring”. Armed with their certifications, and a HACCP system in place, all food service workers will know how

Through extensive research using sources like text-books and journals, the points that a restaurant manager should consider like the design and layout of the kitchen and menu, choosing a supplier and commodity identification, are highlighted. It was noted that while all these points come into consideration, efficient training of staff may be one of the most important elements to Most menus are planned from a previously devised
CHAPTER 2 FOOD SAFETY AND SANITATION REQUIREMENTS INTRODUCTION Food Sanitation is more than just cleanliness. It includes all practices involved. It is protecting food from the risks of contamination, harmful bacteria and foreign bodies. Food safety is the responsibility in every person who involved in food service.

Cleaning is an important process in any production, especially in food and beverage industry. This is due to it have to keep the standard regulated by the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) to make sure that the food from the production is safe to be consumed by the consumers and less case of poisoning occurs. In beer production, the cleaning process involved in maintaining a hygienic level of the equipment of the brewing process, especially the tank or vessel that is used during the fermentation
Background The dairy industry in Malaysia is mainly dependent on imported milk and milk products. The self-sufficiency for dairy product is 4.5%. In an effort to boost the local dairy industry, the government through the Department of Veterinary Services embarked on a crossbreeding project using 50% Sahiwal with 50% Friesian crossbreds imported from Australia and New Zealand. Through inter-se mating and backcrossing, a number of Sahiwal-Friesian crossbred groups with 50 to 75% Friesian genes have
main sources of food contamination. There are a lot of measures can be taken to control the pest. Windows and doors in a food preparation area or food premises that open from time to time to the outside should be screened and repair the defects in the building wall, crack in the windows and gaps around the pipes. This is to prevent the access of the pests. Besides that, electronic fly killers should be installed to control flies that can spread pathogens to our food and cause food poisoning. This device
vitamins from external sources. Reduced milks are also added with nonfat milk solids to improve their appearance and flavor. Any other fortification done in the milk must be indicated in the label (National Dairy Council, 2000). Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point The complexity of demands by the consumers today has resulted to standardization processes and implementation of strict regulations in food manufacturing plants. Every food companies strive for excellence so more people will use
Keywords: Safety, in-flight meal, food handling INTRODUCTION When the topic of aviation safety is discussed, the area of food safety is often overlooked. On the surface, food safety seems to have little to do with aircraft; however, food safety is a critical aspect of any passenger aviation safety program. First and foremost, if the pilots on any flight are served food it had better be safe and not cause them to fall violently ill prior to landing. Next, an aircraft accident according to the International
Food hazards can be generally defined as a state or pollutant that may have the potential to cause disease. The issues of food hazards have become widely recognized internationally in the last decade. With modern technology, scientists have been able to identify foodborne diseases prompted by food hazards on a global scale and have acknowledged these hazards as a primary cause of morbidity (Friis, 2012). I chose to focus on food hazards, their significance, and their effect on a global scale because
duty of care. These duties can be defined around five major points, as follows: • Provide a safe place of work for the staff The work environment like the front of house areas accessible for both customers and employees and the back of house (work facilities) must be free of hazards and risks to the health and safety of the staff and the customers. • Provide a safe system of work for the staff The employer have to consider their hazard and risks' exposure when the employees are doing their job,
or remove Biological Hazard: Cross contamination Clean and sanitized utensils are needed 8(a) Option A): consume on premises Chemical hazard: Potential for acidosis or acid ingestion is present. If there is mould present, mycotoxins could form. pH end point should be greater than or equal to 2.5. Overfermentation can cause acetic acid to increase to hazardous levels. No more than 4oz. per day should be consumed. 8(b) Option B): Package for retail sale Biological Hazard: Spoilage with yeasts
Determination if changes must be made to the original medical device risk assessment; • A systematic process to evaluate product (not just customer complaints); • Inclusion of objective evidence in the risk management file; • Evaluation of any new hazards; • Determining whether there have been changes in the acceptability of risks as originally defined; and • Inclusion of
