| The management systems for the environment and quality, which have been in place since 1996, were combined to an integrated management system in 1999. The management system ensures that the structure and organisation of our company are in harmony with our company policy, and at the same time ensures that there is compliance with all standards, laws and guidelines that are relevant for us, such as those contained in ISO 9000 ff, ISO 14001, ISO 13485 and the Medicines Act, AMWHV, GMP, MPG and EMAS. The statements are defined more precisely in the operating procedures , and in the work procedures that relate directly to workplace and processes.
Our integrated management system comprises rules and procedures for the following five areas:
Personnel Management
Environmental Management
Work Safety Management
Risk Management an
Quality Management.
