What is a Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) Team?

A HACCP team is a group of people who are responsible for developing, implementing, and maintaining the HACCP system. The team consists of people who have specific knowledge and expertise of the products and processes at the company. A HACCP team typically includes people from a variety of areas within the company, such as engineering, production, sanitation, maintenance, and quality assurance/control. You might even participate on a HACCP team. The HACCP team has several responsibilities. First, the team makes a list of all the products made at the company. A separate HACCP plan must be developed for each product or group of products that is made. This information helps assist the team while they’re developing the HACCP plan.
