In ISO 17025:2017 clause 7.4.1 it is written that:
"The laboratory shall have a procedure for the transportation, receipt, handling, protection, storage, retention, and disposal or return of test or calibration items, including all provisions necessary to protect the integrity of the test or calibration item, and to protect the interests of the laboratory and the customer. Precautions shall be taken to avoid deterioration, contamination, loss or damage to the item during handling, transporting, storing/waiting, and preparation for testing or calibration. Handling instructions provided with the item shall be followed."
If i am not wrong, the author is asking for SEVEN (07) different procedures? How can i differentiate between the following terms: transportation, receipt, handling, protection, storage, retention, and disposal or return of test or calibration items?
Thanks and looking forward.
