One important element of FAO's work is building the capacity of food control personnel, including government authorities and food industry personnel carrying out food quality and safety assurance programmes. Such programmes should include specific food risk control procedures such as the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) system. FAO has prepared this manual in an effort to harmonise the approach to training in the HACCP system based on the already harmonised texts and guidelines of the Codex Alimentarius Commission. The manual is structured to provide essential information in a standardised, logical and systematic manner while adhering to effective teaching and learning strategies. Each section is made up of specific training modules which can be combined and customised to meet the specific needs of the students. 1998 (first edition), 2009 (this reprint).

What effects do trends in food consumption have on food safety? What is the impact of food preparation and handling practices in the home, in food services, or in production operations on the risk of food borne illnesses?
