Key topics

  1. PRP fundamentals and their relationship to good hygiene practices and HACCP.

  5. Selecting and monitoring practices for the operation and its hazards, and recognizing when HACCP analysis or official requirements need to be consulted.

Common question

Are PRPs alone enough to ensure food safety?

Prerequisite programmes establish suitable operating and hygiene conditions, but do not by themselves replace hazard analysis or other controls needed for the product, process and applicable requirements.

General official references

For context on relevant primary references; these do not replace competent-authority requirements or an authorized copy of a standard.
