INSPECTION IN CHINA

A factory auditor is a professional who checks elements of a factory or plant's facilities and operations to ensure capacities, safety, quality management, and compliance with regulations. Factory auditors became common in the late 19th century, when many governments enacted the first laws regulating procedures within factories. Some of the first government-employed auditors attempted to root out the use of child labor; in the United Kingdom, the 1833 Factory Act became one of the first to mandate the creation of inspector positions to ensure that children under the age of nine were not used for factory labor. As government regulation of manufacturing expanded, the number of inspectors increased vastly throughout the world. For more info, please visit: http://www.ctstek.com/article_details.php?faqID=64

For most Pre-shipment inspections, how come most of them are Final Random Inspection, instead of full check, initial inspection, during production inspection? Normally for common consumer products, we recommend Final Random Inspections when production is finished, and the products are fully packed into the cartons and are ready for shipment. It is cost-effective to make sure the product quality is up to the acceptable level statistically. Most of the inspections are done in this way, 1 man-day should be enough. If the result is failed, the factory need to recheck, rework the whole batch, and pay for a re-inspection.
