Companies can make capital investments and buy facilities and equipment. However, the greatest resource that a company has is its personnel.
Educated &Trained
Every company that manufactures medicinal products needs to have educated, trained and motivated people and they must understand how adhering to quality cGMP standards will minimize the risk to patient safety.
The personnel are the most significant asset of a company and are the easiest to neglect.
Quality Assurance
The establishment and maintenance of an adequate system of quality assurance and GMP relies upon people who develop it, the people who use it and the people who examine it to see if it has worked.
People are involved, no matter how automated the process or how capital intensive the operation. The behaviour of the people is fundamental to GMP.
Personnel policies must reflect this.
Protect Your Patients
Personnel can be the most impacting on processes and products. Consider what you can do to help ensure minimal human impact on processes and products.
Here are a few examples:
- Hygiene
- Honesty
- And most important, if you see something wrong report it.
By doing so you are protecting the most important aspect of our business, the patient.
