Address Compliance, Risk & Bribery HEAD-ON With Certification AND/OR Training To ISO Standards – Protect Your People And Your Business!
In this era of cut-throat competition, it is important for every organization to ensure that they possess everything that will give the business a competitive advantage. An International Standard is a document containing practical information and best practice. It often describes an agreed way of doing something or a solution to a global problem. However, a company can obtain ISO certification only when the quality standards prescribed by the international organization of standardization have been applied to the product or the service.
ISO stands for International Organization for Standardization which talks about the system’s basic requirements that should be documented and followed rigorously within the scope of the company. This system can be for Quality/ Environment/ Safety or any other aspects of a company. When a company implement these systems and applies for certification through an ISO certification body, it needs to clear surveillance audit as well as certification audit. Certification body audits the company’s system and adherence to bare minimum requirements mentioned in ISO. On successful completion of an audit, the company got ISO certification from the certification body. This cycle is repeated every three years to check the sustenance of the system along with surveillance audits, every year.
