Policy
It is the policy of the laboratory to assure all necessary training has been provided to employees of the laboratory and any others that may perform work at the laboratory. All mandatory training required of an employee that must be renewed shall be reported by the training organization. All training records shall be maintained in the central database, which will be utilized by all Divisions and Sections. No work for which training is required may be performed by an employee whose training has expired. Grace periods, if allowed for Laboratory-imposed retraining requirements, will be specified in the Laboratory document imposing the requirement. It shall be the responsibility of line management to develop training plans for each employee in their organization and ensure that training as planned is received by each employee.
The Training and Development Department, a part of Laboratory Services, shall begin the transition to accept responsibility for all training records and training databases. They shall also notify line management of the status of each employee's training requirements. They shall provide appropriate reports for line management's use. Line management is responsible for defining ITNAs and assuring that all training requirements are met for each of their employees. Organizations that provide unique operational training will continue to do so while providing the central training organization with necessary data.
