Standards

RiskSTOP is proud to have achieved the following standards:

INVESTORS IN PEOPLE
RiskSTOP Ltd, part of the RiskSTOP Group of companies, first achieved Investors in People (IiP) status in 2004.

Maintaining IiP status means RiskSTOP must undergo a review every three years. Here are a selection of comments from our latest review in 2010:

“It has been a rare pleasure to work with an organisation whose values and principles are so in tune with Investors in People, and you excel in nearly every aspect of the Standard.”

“Your key strengths are your drive, passion and a rare combination of process-driven approach to the business plus an undeniable flair for people; this too is rare.”

“Please believe me when I say that I always speak as I find, and I am rarely as full of compliments as here! You have all worked hard for your success which is thoroughly deserved.”

ISO 9001:2008
RiskSTOP was certified as ISO 9001 compliant in 2002, just two years after our formation.

ISO 9001 is the world’s most established quality framework, setting the standard not only for quality management systems, but management systems in general. It demonstrates achievement in areas such as customer satisfaction, staff motivation and continual improvement.

BS EN ISO 9001 specifies requirements for a QMS (Quality Management System) where an organisation:

Needs to demonstrate its ability to consistently provide product that meets customer and applicable regulatory requirements,

AND

Aims to enhance customer satisfaction through the effective application of the system. This includes processes for continual improvement of the system and the assurance of conformity and applicable regulatory requirements.

ISO 27001:2005
RiskSTOP was certified as compliant with the international standard for Information Security Management ISO 27001 in 2011.

The British Standards Institution (BSI) carried out a full on-site assessment of RiskSTOP’s information security management systems. It found RiskSTOP to be compliant with ISO 27001, which is the only auditable international standard for information security.

ISO 27001 is a best practice specification developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). It is designed to help businesses and organisations throughout the world develop a “best-in-class” Information Security Management System (ISMS). BSI is accredited by ISO to carry out audits and grant certification in connection with ISO 27001.
