Randy,
We address the MR as the person who is responsible for ensuring this thing happens. The MR is also the liaison between the EMS and internal/external concerns. I have seen instances where the MR is intentionally kept away from the day-to-day EMS activities. In most cases, this has not achieved the desired results.
How much time the MR needs to commit to the EMS is typically dependent on the nature of the business and the types of activities performed. The larger the operation and the more complex the EMS, then it would require more of the MR’s time. We work with small to mid sized manufacturers. In most cases the EMS MR is also the QMS MR. The amount of time dedicated to the EMS is between 25% and 50%. As the system matures that should go down.

Hope this helps.
