Foreword

This document was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2020, Directives for standardization - Part 1: Rules for the structure and drafting of standardizing documents.

1 Scope

This document establishes the principle, evaluation index system, and rating rules for the evaluation of resilience of manufacturer's product safety and recall management system, stipulates the basic evaluation conditions, and provides an evaluation model and the application of evaluation results.

This document applies to the evaluation of resilience of manufacturer's product safety and recall management system. It can be used as a reference for the evaluation of other operators.

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in GB/T 34400 and GB/T 43387, as well as the following apply.

4 Evaluation principle

5 Basic conditions

When conducting an evaluation of manufacturer safety management resilience, the manufacturer shall meet the following conditions.

-- Shall identify, track, understand, and comply with product safety and recall requirements in applicable laws, regulations, and standards in the market where the product is manufactured or sold;

-- Shall be equipped with an organization - with a clearly defined product safety and recall management system - that is responsible for coordinating and promoting the construction of the product safety and recall management system, formulating corresponding management policies, developing management plans, and establishing document and record keeping procedures;

-- Shall have its own brand;

-- Shall have good integrity, with no serious record of dishonesty.

6 Evaluation model

This document categorizes the manufacturer safety management resilience into four grades (see Figure 1) based on the different levels of each element of the manufacturer's product safety and recall management system. Grade 1 represents the lowest grade of safety management resilience; grade 2 represents a higher grade of safety management resilience based on meeting the requirements of grade 1, and so on; grade 4 represents the highest grade of safety management resilience.

7 Index system

The evaluation index system for manufacturer safety management resilience consists of a three-tier structure. Level-1 indexes include foundational resilience, social resilience, organizational resilience, and technical resilience. Level-2 indexes characterize the composition of the level-1 index. Level-3 indexes are tiered indexes used to reflect different resilience grades of each level-2 index. The manufacturer safety management resilience evaluation indexes are shown in Table 1. The meanings of level-1 and level-2 indexes are given in Appendix A. The value selection rules for level-3 indexes shall be implemented in accordance with Appendix B. […]
