What is HACCP CCP and OPRP and its difference

Question

Accepted Answer

HACCP CCP and OPRP are food safety management systems. CCP is a critical control point while OPRP is an operational prerequisite program.

HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) is a food safety management system that identifies and controls potential hazards in food production.
CCP (Critical Control Point) is a step in the production process where a hazard can be prevented, eliminated, or reduced to an acceptable level.
OPRP (Operational Prerequisite Program) is a food safety management system that controls potential hazards that are not critical but still important to address.
The main difference between CCP and OPRP is that CCP is a step in the production process where a hazard must be controlled, while OPRP is a program that addresses potential hazards that are not critical but still important to address.
Examples of CCPs include cooking, cooling, and packaging, while examples of OPRPs include employee hygiene and sanitation practices.
