Hazard analysis and risk-based preventive controls

Hazard analysis and risk-based preventive controls or HARPC is a successor to the Hazard analysis and critical control points (HACCP) food safety system, mandated in the United States by the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) of 2010.

Preventive control systems emphasize prevention of hazards before they occur rather than their detection after they occur.^[1] The FDA released the rules in the Federal Register from September 2015 onwards.^[2] The first release of rules addressed Preventive Controls for Human Food and Preventive Controls for Foods for Animals.^[3] The Produce Safety Final Rule, the Foreign Supplier Verification Programs (FSVP) Final Rule and the Accredited Third-Party Certification Final Rule were issued on November 13, 2015.^[4] The Sanitary Transportation of Human and Animal Food final rule was issued on April 6, 2016,^[5] and the Mitigation Strategies To Protect Food Against Intentional Adulteration (Food Defense) final rule was issued on May 27, 2016.^[6]
