HACCP Awareness Training is design to assist your organization in training your employees and ensuring that your company’s food safety practices are followed.
These training courses cover the full process, from production to consumer delivery. Every operation serving or selling food needs to have a food safety system in place that is designed specifically to guarantee the food being served is safe to eat.
Our HACCP Awareness Training is built on the foundation of the international food safety codex—the CODEX Alimentarius. This means the principles and methodologies you learn are not just compliant with Malaysian Standard MS 1480:2019, but are also aligned with the global benchmark for food safety, as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) and Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).
This ensures your food safety practices are recognized and respected worldwide, giving you a competitive edge in both local and international markets.
Build Your Foundation in Food Safety Excellence
In the world of food, safety isn’t just a goal—it’s a non-negotiable responsibility. Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) is the globally recognized and scientifically based system that provides a proactive framework for ensuring food is safe to eat. Unlike traditional quality control methods that inspect finished products, HACCP is a preventive system designed to identify, evaluate, and control potential biological, chemical, and physical hazards throughout the entire food process, from raw material to consumption.
In Malaysia, this system is defined by the Malaysian Standard MS 1480:2019, making it a critical benchmark for any serious food business. Our HACCP Awareness Training is more than just an introductory course; it’s the essential first step in building a robust Food Safety Management System. Whether you are looking to achieve formal certification, comply with legal requirements, or simply instill a culture of safety, this training provides the foundational knowledge every food handler and manager must possess to protect consumers and your business.
This specific food safety system is called HACCP for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point.
Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) is an internationally recognized method for ensuring the safety of the entire food manufacturing process until the final product reaches the consumer.
Why is HACCP Awareness Training So Important?
The success of a HACCP system depends entirely on the people who implement it. A plan is only as strong as the awareness and commitment of the team behind it. This training is crucial because it:
Prevents Foodborne Illness: Empowers your team to identify and control hazards before they can cause harm.
Ensures Regulatory Compliance: Aligns your operations with the Malaysian Standard MS 1480:2019 and other relevant food safety regulations.
Protects Your Brand and Reputation: A single food safety incident can be devastating. Proactive HACCP knowledge is your best defense.
Reduces Costs: Preventing hazards is far more cost-effective than dealing with recalls, waste, legal liabilities, and reputational damage.
Builds Customer Trust: Demonstrates your unwavering commitment to delivering safe, high-quality products.
A strict standards must be followed at the international level to ensure consumers are protected from accidental poisoning and other food-related risks when it comes to food safety.
With this in mind, HACCP is recommended for everyone working in the food and beverage industry. To maintain excellent food and beverage quality, training your team members on how to implement HACCP is critical.
This is also to avoid product recalls, customer complaints and legal action against the company if the product does not meet international food safety requirements.
HACCP is a risk management tool that is primarily used to manage food safety risks.
Course Objective: Equipping Your Team with Foundational Knowledge
The primary objective of this course is to provide participants with a clear and practical understanding of the HACCP system. By the end of this training, your team will be able to comprehend their vital role in food safety, understand the requirements of MS 1480:2019, and grasp the essential steps involved in developing and maintaining a HACCP plan.
In Malaysia, the latest Malaysian Standard MS 1480: 2019 was published by the Department of Standards to describe the requirements for food safety according to the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) system.
The copy of this standard can be purchase via Jabatan Standard Malaysia Portal.
The HACCP Awareness training is to ensure the workers comply to safety standards of food during preparation, processing, manufacturing, packaging, storage, transportation, distribution, handling, or offering for sale or supply in any sector of the food chain.
