우리나라 축산물 HACCP 제도의 구조와 특징

The Structure and Characteristics of HACCP System for Livestock Products in Korea

The accredited HACCP establishment is certified by 3 channels in Korea. Firstly, slaughterhouses, processing plants of livestock products, and feed factories are certified by National Veterinary Research & Quarantine Service (NVRQS). This accounted for 69% of total HACCP certifications in October 2006. Secondly, Korea Food & Drug Administration (KFDA) is in charge of ordinary foods and beverages which accounted for 25% in the same period of time. Thirdly, fisheries products for export, which accounted for 6% at the same period of time, are certified by Ministry of Maritime Affaires & Fisheries (MOMAF). Based on the revised Livestock Products Processing Act, HACCP systems were applied for Korean livestock products in December 1997. All slaughterhouses are under the control of HACCP systems from July 2003. Korea is now accelerating to apply HACCP system for livestock farms. Non-government organization of Korea Livestock Products HACCP Management Institute(KLPHMI) started in September 2006. KLPHMI, entrusted from NVRQS, will carry out HACCP certification and follow-up management, survey and research, and sanitary education/ training of HACCP experts.
