Common Questions
What is a HACCP Food Safety Plan?
HACCP Food Safety Plans are a set of documents designed to identify potential food safety hazards specific to an organisation and outlines corrective actions that will be taken if these hazards occur.
HACCP stands for ‘Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points’ and is a globally accepted food safety system. It is designed to prevent food safety hazards from occurring and is a legal requirement for food businesses to have in many countries.
How long does it take to complete a Food Safety Plan?
As each business is different, how long it takes to build a Food Safety Plan depends on you and the needs of your business.
For many, the step-by-step instructions in the kit are so easy to follow, a comprehensive and HACCP compliant Food Safety Plan can be built in a matter of hours or days.
What's the difference between a 'Plan' and a 'Program'?
A Food Safety Plan is just one part of a Food Safety Program. A Food Safety Program is simply the implementation of your Food Safety Plan.
In some government documents, the term 'program' may be used. Rest assured that the AIFS HACCP Food Safety Plan Kit meets the legal requirements for creating a plan that implements HACCP.
Why do I need a HACCP Food Safety Plan?
In Australia, it's a legal requirement for food businesses to follow HACCP principles and to have a HACCP Food Safety Plan as part of their Food Safety Program. It helps protect the business and its customers.
Food Safety Plans must be kept on the premises of a food business and be updated regularly. It’s required during audits and organisations found to be not in compliance with food safety laws can be fined or face severe punishment.
Will it be accepted in Australia?
The HACCP Food Safety Plan Kit was developed using the principles used by the International Standards Organisation (ISO) 22000 which is accepted in Australia.
There is no regulatory body that governs or provides HACCP certification. Legal requirements specify that you must follow HACCP principles which this kit meets.
