The question is: documented proof of what?
Medical device regulations require signatures for various things. The signatures are there to provide proof of authorization or approval. For example, the US QSR's require:
Signatures of the individual(s) approving documents and changes to documents (proof of approval).
Signatures of the individual(s) approving design input requirements (proof of approval).
Signatures of the individual(s) approving design outputs (proof of approval).
Signatures of the individual(s) approving validation of processes (proof of approval).
Signatures of the individual(s) conducting acceptance activities (proof of acceptance).
Signatures of the individual(s) perfoming labeling examination or accuracy (proof of review and approval).
Signatures of the individual(s) authorizing release of finished goods (proof of authorized release).
Signatures of the individual(s) authorizing use of nonconforming product (proof of authorized use).
All of these required signatures are for authorization or approval. Does it make sense for each employee to authorize or approve their own job descriptions? I personally don't think so.
