Food Defence (VACCP and TACCP) Workshop
Overview
Requirements for food fraud and food defence have been written into various Standards, such as IFS, BRCGS and FSSC 22000 Version 6 version 5. Both of these topics deal with intentional adulteration, designed to either yield economic gains for the criminal or to cause harm to the consumer, contrary to HACCP, which is designed to control unintentional or accidental harm. Dealing with intentional adulteration is no easy task for those in the food industry. The challenges are enormous.
