Quality control inspectors make sure that everything from raw materials to finished products meets quality and safety standards specified in the purchasing documentation. All production processes, whether large or small, require elements of quality control and all inspection and testing is carried out to specified requirements that have been agreed between the purchaser and the supplier.
Quality control inspectors normally work in a laboratory, workshop or office. They visit the factory floor to take samples of products and inspect production, and to discuss problems with colleagues.
They also inspect products purchased by their company from suppliers and maintain records of supplier performance. This data is important in helping suppliers to improve their performance and for making decisions regarding which suppliers can be relied on to meet specified requirements,
Inspectors regularly check and test samples of a product, as it would be impractical to test every single item that leaves a factory or workshop.
The testing methods that quality control inspectors use vary, depending on the type of product they are working with. For example, in the food processing industry, inspectors are responsible for making sure that products meet food safety and nutritional standards. In a pharmaceutical company, an inspector may test the safety and purity of drugs.
Some quality control tests are routine and quick. Others are more complex and lengthy. Automated systems are often used to very quickly test thousands of samples.
Quality control inspectors keep records of all the tests they have carried out. They use charts and statistics to analyse their results. They may then write and present a report to show their findings.
The inspector may be responsible for declaring that a product is not safe or is not of the specified quality.
If there is a problem, quality control inspectors meet with production staff to work out the root cause of the problem and to decide whether current processes need to be changed. They might make recommendations for improvement.
