Quality Manual: Section 4.9 and 4.10 - How to Control the Non-conforming testing and/or calibration work and implement the improvement?

 4.9        Control of nonconforming testing and/or calibration work

Calibration is not covered under the scope of accreditation, because PTL is conducting tests of Pesticides & Pesticide Residue only.

Policy

PTL is committed to taking appropriate actions (halt of work, notification to the customer, authorizing the resumption of work, etc.) when any work and results do not conform to its own or the customers' requirements.  



Responsibility

The quality Manager is responsible for the management of non-conforming work and appropriate actions.

Procedure

A documented procedure (PTL/QSP/06) has been developed to control nonconforming work.

4.9.1    The laboratory has a procedure (PTL/QSP/06) that is implemented when any aspect of its testing work, or the results of this work, do not conform to its own procedure or the agreed requirements of the customer. The procedures (PTL/QSP/06) ensure that:

a)         the responsibilities and authorities for the management of nonconforming work are designated and actions (including the halting of work and withholding of test reports as necessary) are defined and taken when nonconforming work is identified;

b)         an evaluation of the significance of the nonconforming work is made,

c)         correction is taken immediately, together with any decision about the acceptability of the nonconforming work;

d)         where necessary, the customer is notified and work is recalled;

e)         the responsibility for authorizing the resumption of work is defined.

Identification of nonconforming work or problems with the management system or with testing activities can occur at various places within the management system and technical operations. Examples are customer complaints, quality control, instrument, checking consumable materials, staff observations or supervision, test report checking, management reviews, and internal or external audits.

4.9.2    Where the evaluation indicates that the nonconforming work could recur or that there is doubt about the compliance of the laboratory's operations with its own policies and procedures, the corrective action procedure (PTL/QSP/08) is promptly followed.

Records

Records to be maintained are defined in the procedure (PTL/QSP/06)

                                                            
                                                             END OF THE DOCUMENT
