| Quality Policy Statement: The objective of
the quality system and the commitment of management are
to consistently provide our customers with data of known
and documented quality that meets their requirements.
Our policy is to use good professional practices, to
maintain quality, to uphold the highest quality of
service, and to comply with the NELAC Standard. The
laboratory ensures that personnel are free from any
commercial, financial, and other undue pressures, which
might adversely affect the quality of work. This policy
is implemented and enforced through the unequivocal
commitment of management, at all levels, to the Quality
Assurance (QA) principles and practices. However, the
primary responsibility for quality rests with each
individual within the laboratory organization. Every
laboratory employee must ensure that the generation and
reporting of quality analytical data is a fundamental
priority. Every laboratory employee is required to
familiarize themselves with the quality documentation
and to implement the policies and procedures in their
work. All employees are trained annually on ethical
principles and procedures surrounding the data that is
generated. The laboratory maintains a strict policy of
client confidentiality; except when notification to an
outside regulatory agency is required by law. |
