Abstract

We analyze the HACCP Prerequisites of National Veterinary Research and Quarantine Service (NVRQS), Korea Food and Drug Administration(KFDA), and US Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) and recommend contents and ranges to be complemented and used for the preparation of guidelines. We used the HACCP Notice of the Processing Livestock Act, the HACCP Application Manual for Livestock Processing Plants, the HACCP Notice of the Food Sanitation Act, US GPO 9 CFR and 21 CFR, US FSIS Directive 11,000.1, and HACCP-based Inspection reference guide of Consumer Services, North Carolina Department of Agriculture. The Prerequisites of NVRQS and KFDA are composed of 66 and 84 items respectively, without detailed guidelines for their application. This may decisively affect the application in the field and the evaluation activities. Water supplies, washing and disinfection monitoring tools, and examining and correcting plan are required to be improved. If the standards of compliance of each Prerequisite item as well as performance guidelines are given, the application and evaluation will be performed more effectively. The evaluation items should be associated with Prerequisite operations such as non-compliance complement, self-evaluation, and record keeping. Hazards found during official inspection should be promptly controlled not to contaminate the work places and processing items. As the HACCP is expected to spread from farms to tables, the standardized Prerequisite program among the official governments should be prepared.

본 연구는 검역원의 선행요건 항목을 식약청 및 미국 FSIS의 선행요건과 비교 검토함으로써, 보완되어야 할 검역원 선행요건의 내용과 범위를 제시하고자 하였다. 검역원과 식약청 모두 HACCP 고시에서 선행요건 평가항목을 제시하고 있으나 서로 상이한 부분이 많이 발견되므로 관리항목 범위와 내용을 조정할 필요성이 지적되었다. 또한 HACCP 적용업소가 지속적으로 확대되면 업종별 작업환경조건이 다양해지므로 HACCP 고시에서는 선행요건 관리항목의 기본 틀만 제시하고 세부지침 및 일치 불일치 조건은 별도로 명시하여 관리하는 것이 선행요건의 현장적용 활용성을 높이고 평가업무의 표준화를 이루는데 필수적인 것으로 파악되었다.
