Organizational processes

For each of the components of the program to function properly, the proper data must be identified and collected. Valid and reliable data are the foundation for an effective metrics program. Data necessary to measure safety performance must be 

For the safety performance to improve in the workplace, interventions must be based upon sound information that begins with the measurement process. Proper measurement and collection of safety metrics requires employees to be motivated to keep abreast as to where the safety program stands with regard to the goals that have been set. Employees in the organization should be held accountable for collecting the necessary measurements for the metrics program. Measurement activities should be established to ensure validity and reliability of the data. Inconsistencies in the measurement will lead to invalid data, improper conclusions, and incorrect corrective action.

All testing to support notification must be performed by methods specified in Annex V to Directive 79/831/EEC and in accordance with the principles of good laboratory practice (GLP). GLP is concerned with the organizational processes and conditions under which laboratory studies are planned, performed, monitored, recorded and reported. 

Note that good laboratory practice (glp) should not be confused with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP). The latter is the name given to a set of principles governing the organizational process and the condition under which non-clinical health and environmental safety studies are planned, performed, monitored, recorded, archived and reported, and was put forward initially by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) (see Chapters 2 and 9).

GLP is a managerial concept covering the organizational process and the conditions under which laboratory studies are planned, performed, monitored, recorded, and reported. Its principles must be followed by test facilities carrying out studies to be submitted to national authorities for the purposes of assessment of chemicals and other uses relating to the protection of man and the environment. 

This method of selecting catalytic sites significantly depends on spontaneous processes, in contrast to the development of artificial enzymes and catalytic antibodies. The selection process is based on self-assembly, selforganization and self-optimization. Therefore, this selection approach bears the characteristics of supramolecular chemistry. A similar concept is used in natural evolution processes, resulting in the complicated life forms we see around us today. Therefore, it is clear that we can design the self-organizational processes used in supramolecular chemistry to proceed according to the concepts followed by this natural evolutionary process. 

The documentation should indicate the procedures which will be used to examine both the organizational processes and the conditions under which studies are planned, performed, monitored and recorded. Guidance for such procedures is available in Guidance for the Gonduct of Test Facility Inspections and Study Audits (No. 3 in the OEGD series on Principles of GLP and Gompliance Monitoring). 

The GLP principles are a managerial concept defining the organizational processes and conditions under which laboratory and field research is planned, performed, monitored, recorded, and reported. They were designed to ensure that sampling and analytical procedures and results are complete and of known, documented quality. When a study is GLP compliant, an auditor, regulator, or analyst should be able to review the smdy some years after its completion and easily determine what work was done, when, where, by whom, and with what equipment and methods who supervised the study what results were obtained and whether there were any problems encountered and, if so, how they were handled. Considerable effort and dedication in planning, support, and implementation is required to achieve this standard of documentation and attention to detail. Successful implementation of GLP provides reliable data for which the precision, accuracy, comparability, and completeness is known. 

Inclusion is the degree to which individuals feel part of critical organizational processes, indicated by their access to information and resources, work group involvement, and abihty to influence decision making.
