Hiatal hernias occur when part of the stomach slides through the opening in the diaphragm where the esophagus passes from the chest into the abdomen. A sliding hiatal hernia is the most common type and occurs when the lower esophagus and portions of the stomach slide through the diaphragm into the chest.
HACCP is designed to focus attention on food safety areas and to monitor and check each step along the process to make sure the product is safe and the process is in control - instead of relying on the end product when it's too late to correct the problem.
While HACCP Training programs are limited to ensuring that food is safe to consume, all prerequisite programs should be reviewed for effectiveness during the design and implementation of a HACCP plan. Although they can be managed separately from the HACCP plan itself, some of their aspects may be incorporated into it.
