Who authorizes Out of Calibration and Out of Commission labels?

The correct authorization of Out of Calibration and Out of Commission labels falls under the responsibility of the Authorizing Officer. This individual has the necessary authority to determine the status of equipment and ensure that appropriate labels are applied based on established standards and procedures.

The Authorizing Officer is typically tasked with maintaining the integrity of operations and ensuring that any equipment that does not meet operational readiness or accuracy standards is properly identified and marked. This is crucial for safety and efficiency within maintenance operations, as it prevents the use of faulty equipment.

In contrast, though the Division Officer, Maintenance Supervisor, and Quality Control Officer may have roles in the maintenance and oversight of equipment, their responsibilities do not encompass the formal authority to authorize the labeling of items as Out of Calibration or Out of Commission. These roles focus on various aspects of equipment operation, supervision, and quality assurance, but the designation and authorization required for labels typically lies with the Authorizing Officer.
