Problems Encountered

These are excerpts from our Exit Report on the cGMP Evaluation of the Various Departments of Lloyd .

(Pen) Inadequacy of working space hindering orderly and logical placement of equipment and materials to suit the operation

Premises
Materials are not properly stored in orderly manner due primarily to inadequate space. They are stored off the floor and not sufficiently spaced. (Warehouse) Materials are not stored under suitable environmental conditions. There is insufficient ventilation and conditions are not monitored.

Sanitation and Hygiene

Inadequate practice of hand washing before and after entering the area and absence of (visual) reminders regarding this practice Incomplete protective clothing (e.g. gloves for personnel involving in strip packaging and face masks for the stripping operator). Smoking, drinking, keeping

Sanitation and Hygiene
