HACCP training
Operators need an understanding of HACCP principles so that they can set up and maintain HACCP-based procedures. Staff should also be aware of HACCP principles so as to understand the importance of the procedures they carry out to minimise the spread of meat-borne hazards.
- Training is available from local colleges, food safety training companies and consultants, or may be provided in-house. Training is more effective if it is related to meat production.
- Meat Plant Manager's Hygiene & HACCP course - The Meat Plant HACCP Manual includes the syllabus of the two-day 'Meat Plant Manager's Hygiene & HACCP course'. The course has accreditation from both the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority and from the Meat Training Council, and participants are eligible for a qualification.
