Question about Management Represenative ISO 9001:2000, Part 5.5.2...when it states in the new 2008 version "must be a member of the organization’s own management. Outsiders may no longer perform this important function," does that mean that the Management Rep must be on the companies payroll, as in W2? Can this person be a full time manager (32+ hrs. wk.), but a self employed contractor who receives a 1099 instead?
We are already ISO 001:2000 certified and gearing up for the new 9001:2008, so I'm beginning to read data on the new changes and/or requirements. I have found this forum helpful in interpertating the requirements, since so much can be subjective.
The interpertation of this still is a little ambigious if it doesn't specify the above requirements. Being a contractor doesn't make you any less commited, and being full time leaves little time for any other employment.
Any comments?
