Abstract

Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point System (HACCP) is recognized worldwide as a science-based and systematic approach for food safety. This has been initiated to establish the HACCP system in Korean slaughterhouses by suggesting some of effective implementation ways. An awareness level survey using questionnaire for 124 owners and 363 employees of the slaughterhouses, and 170 government officers responsible for HACCP duties was performed. This study shows that only 34.7% of owners, 21.1% of employees, and 57.1% of government officers have good understanding of HACCP, but 93.5%, 88.9% and 93.6% respectively have the willingness of HACCP implementation. Major benefits in HACCP implementation in the slaughterhouse raised by respondents were improvement of hygiene level of the plant (54.1%), increase of meat sale (17.6%), pride of the production of safe meat for human consumption (9.6%) and increase of meat export (7.5%), while major obstacles were financial difficulties (33.2%), poor levels of the facilities and equipments in the plants (27.3%), poor level of personal hygiene (19.4%), and lack of understanding of HACCP (12.3%). The most urgent measures which respondents raised to implement HACCP system effectively in the slaughterhouses at the moment were the Improvement of levels of facilities and equipments in the plants (36.6%), the establishment of HACCP base through education and training (19%), special benefits to HACCP implementing plant (11.8%), and close relationship between government and the industry (10.3%). The present study shows some of effective ways to implement HACCP in slaughterhouses.

위해요소중점관리제도(Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point : HACCP)는 세계적으로 식품의 안전성을 보증하는 가장 과학적이고 체계적인 위생관리기법으로 널리 인정되고 있고, 우리나라도 법적으로 도축장에 연차적으로 의무적으로 적용토록 하고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 HACCP를 국내 도축장에 시행하는데 있어 기본토대를 파악함으로서 향후 효과적이고 체계적인 HACCP이 시행되는데 기여할 수 있도록 하기 위한 것이다. 이를 위하여 HACCP 시행주체인 영업자(124명),종업원(363명) 및 HACCP 담당공무원(170명)의 HACCP 시행능력 및 인식실태를 설문조사를 통하여 분석하였다. 본 연구결과, HACCP의 이해정도는 도축장 영업자가 34.7%, 종업원 21.1%, 관계공무원이 57.1% 으로 공무원이 비교적 HACCP에 대한 이해정도가 높은 것으로 나타났으며, HACCP수행의지는 영업자 93.5%, 영업자 88.9%, 공무원 93.6%으로 모두 시행의지가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 설문조사에서 나타난 도축장에서의 HACCP 수행의 가장 큰 잇점은 도축장 위생수준의 향상(54.1%), 식육판매증가(17.6%), 위생식육 생산에 대한 자긍심(9.6%), 식육수출증가(7.5%) 등으로 나타났으며, 시행시 가장 큰 장애요인으로는 도축장 경영난(33.2%), 도축장의 낮은 시설수준(27.3%), 종업원의 낮은 위생의식(19.4%), 및 HACCP의 이해부족(12.3%)으로 나타났다. 현 시점에서 도축장에서 효과적인 HACCP를 시행하기 위한 가장 시급한 조치로는 도축장의 시설수준향상(36.6%), 교육과 훈련을 통한 HACCP 기반 확대(17%), HACCP시행 도축장을 위한 특혜부여(11.8%), 그리고 정부와 산업체간의 긴밀한 협조체제 (10.3%)로 나타났다. 이번 연구결과는 HACCP를 시행하기 위한 효과적인 방법을 제시하며, 도축장 영업자에게는 그들 자신만의 효율적인 HACCP 계획을 수립할 수 있도록 도와줄 뿐만 아니라, 국내 도축장의 HACCP 시행여건을 체계적으로 분석·제공함으로서 정부등 관련업계에서 HACCP시행 정책 등을 수립하는데 있어 기초자료로 활용될 수 있다.
