Having a strong understanding of food hygiene is essential if you have a business that manufactures or sells food products, because there are strict laws and regulations concerning this. Regulation (EC) NO.852/2004 on the hygiene of foodstuffs and The Food Hygiene (England) Regulations 2006 state the necessary hygiene requirements for all businesses in the food industry.
One of the key requirements of these laws is that you must be able to show that when you make or sell food it is safe to eat. To be able to do this, you have to demonstrate that you have food safety management procedures in place and that these are based on the principles of 'hazard analysis and critical control point' (HACCP).
But, what does all of this mean? Well, it sounds quite complicated, but it isn’t really. All it means is that you need to look at your business, decide what potential hazards there could be, and put procedures in place to control these hazards. Food related hazards in business can mean: the growth of harmful bacteria on food if it is kept at the wrong temperature for too long, cleaning products getting into food, and broken glass getting into food. Hazards like these can happen at any stage of your business process, from manufacturing to serving it to your customer.
