自 1996 年首次提出病原体减少危害分析关键控制计划 (PR/HACCP) 规则以来,遵守该规则的成本一直存在争议。调查提供了一些成本信息,但利用有限的数据审查了工厂规模和其他间接影响,并且没有对直接成本组成部分(例如规定的任务)进行成本估算。本文利用全国肉类和家禽工厂 PR/HACCP 成本调查的数据解决了这些缺陷。结果表明,(1) 强制任务是 PR/HACCP 规则中成本最高的组成部分,(2) 监管有利于大型工厂而不是小型工厂,(3) 私人行动的成本几乎与直接监管相同。
The cost of compliance with the Pathogen Reduction Hazard Analysis Critical Control Program (PR/HACCP) rule of 1996 has been controversial since it was first proposed. Surveys have provided some cost information but examined plant size and other indirect effects with limited data and did not make cost estimates of direct cost components, such as mandated tasks. This paper addresses those deficiencies with data from a national survey of meat and poultry plants on PR/HACCP costs. Results indicate that (1) mandated tasks are the most costly component of the PR/HACCP rule, (2) regulation favors large plants over small ones, and (3) private actions are nearly as costly as direct regulation.
