In the fast-paced world of food production, HACCP is king. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our latest food safety resource designed to help you keep all 12 steps of the HACCP process organized – our HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) Audit Checklist.

In this HACCP Audit Checklist

In this checklist, you will find the twelve steps to the HACCP process, the tasks for each step, and an area to add notes for each. It acts as a systematic approach to identifying potential gaps in your program, something every food safety professional knows is a constant goal. This checklist will allow you to verify that you are considering every important part to an effective HACCP plan, help you identify areas for improvement of your food safety practices, and simplify the documentation process.

Why It Matters

This checklist will help you prepare for HACCP certification as defined by the Codex Alimentarius. “The Codex Alimentarius, or “Food Code” is a collection of standards, guidelines and codes of practice adopted by the Codex Alimentarius Commission. The Commission, also known as CAC, is the central part of the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme and was established by FAO and WHO to protect consumer health and promote fair practices in food trade”.
