Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) systems were developed by NASA and the Pillsbury Company in the 1960’s. HACCP food safety systems have been implemented by food companies nationwide as an effective and rational means of assuring food safety from harvest to consumption. Flick Environmental Services has adopted HACCP principles as part of our integrated pest elimination programme. Critical control points associated with potential pest activity are identified and monitored routinely during regular service. These are points in the process where a loss of control would result in an unacceptable breach of quality.
