Sustainable Management
The test activities are conducted fairly, and management ensures fairness.
All employees, including management, are responsible for the impartiality of the testing work and do not allow any commercial, financial or other pressure to impair impartiality.
Management continues to identify and seek ways to minimise or eliminate any hazards to the impartiality of the laboratory, i.e., those that may arise from the laboratory's activities, the laboratory's relationship with the laboratory, or the relationship with the laboratory's staff.
No pressure from regulatory bodies and administrative bodies requiring the submission of accredited test reports is permitted.
All employees are prohibited from taking any action that impairs the fairness of test work, such as customer marketing and sales commissions to attract new business.
It is necessary to identify the relationship with the departments within the organization that may cause disadvantages related to test work, such as personnel, administration, and budget allocation, and remove the risk factors for impartiality.
All employees related to the test work conduct prior deliberation on their participation in external activities in order to minimise the risk factors for impartiality that may occur due to external activities (society, club meetings, etc.).
