Non-Conformance Policy Writers
What are Non-Conformance Policies?
Non-conformance policies outline how organisations identify, record and resolve situations where products, services or processes fail to meet agreed standards.
Non-conformities can arise from customer complaints, audit findings, process errors or supplier issues. A clear policy ensures that problems are addressed quickly, corrective action is taken and lessons are learned to prevent recurrence.
What Do Non-Conformance Policies Cover?
A non-conformance policy typically includes:
-
A definition of non-conformance, with examples relevant to the organisation
-
Responsibilities of staff, managers and quality teams in reporting and managing non-conformities
-
Procedures for recording non-conformances in a consistent format
-
Risk assessment and classification of non-conformances by severity and impact
-
Root cause analysis to identify underlying issues
-
Corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) to address problems and stop recurrence
-
Monitoring and review of non-conformance trends for continuous improvement
-
Communication with customers, suppliers or regulators where required
-
Links to quality strategy, complaints, incident response and audit policies
A clear policy ensures that non-conformances are dealt with transparently, consistently and effectively.
It also supports compliance with ISO 9001 and other quality management standards, which require evidence of structured non-conformance and corrective action processes.
By embedding non-conformance management into quality systems, organisations can protect customers, improve processes and demonstrate a commitment to accountability and continuous improvement.
