| Abstract: | In recent years laboratories have undergone huge transformations due to the technological development of inspection and testing equipment; the introduction of computerised and automated systems; keen competitiveness between companies/laboratories as a result of demand within Europe and on the international market; and greater consumer awareness of the quality of the products available. Laboratory accreditation, though a voluntary process, is formal recognition by an accreditation body of the laboratory's competence to carry out certain tests. This article presents those aspects which should be taken into account in the step-by-step implementation of a quality system and also makes reference to the requirements for the operation of accredited laboratories in accordance with European Standard EN 45001. |
