Policy
The Standard Mark for each management systems certification which ra operates is notified via email.
The use of the license(s) and its related Standard Mark(s) is/are carefully controlled. Licensee is clearly instructed and monitored regarding the use and display of the License(s) and the Standard Mark(s) as well as the penalties to be imposed for misuse. The Standard Mark(s) shall not be used on a product including laboratory test, calibration, or inspection report, or in a way that may be interpreted as denoting product conformity.
As specified by the ra, penalties are imposed on those who abuse or misuse the License(s) or the Standard Mark(s). Complaints by members of the public and industry and commerce are encouraged and regularly reviewed to identify preventive measures regarding abuse or misuse of the License(s) or the Standard Mark(s).
The mark of the accreditation body is to be used only in relation to the scope sectors for which the management systems certification scheme of ra is accredited.
ra maintains and makes publicly accessible on its website a directory of valid certifications which show the name, relevant normative document, scope, and geographical location (e.g. city and country) for each certified client (or the geographic location of the headquarters and any sites within the scope of a multi-site certification).
