  The self-control programs (PAC) are currently the main tool of the agroindustry in the control of the manufacturing processes, aiming to guarantee the quality and safety of the food produced. Since 2005, with the publication of circulars n° 175 and 176 in Brazil, the evaluation of the implementation and execution, by the inspected industry, of the so-called PACs, whose modern legislation aimed at food sanitary control, treat these programs as requirements essential for guaranteeing the safety of products. And before that, through a literature review and guiding legislation, this work aimed to present the main challenges faced by small and medium-sized meatpacking companies in the implementation of PACs. It is concluded that, for the effective implementation of these programs, the actions must be promoted for the awareness and effective participation of the agribusiness leaders regarding their importance.
