Programme Managing Practitioner (PMP)

TOX247 Level 5 Certificate

Before becoming a TOX247 Programme Managing Practitioner (PMP) with a ‘TOX247 Authority to Practise’ you need to understand the definition of what your accreditation will give you:
 
“The role of the TOX247 Programme Managing Practitioner (PMP) is to manage the company’s workplace substance management programme (WSMP) and escalate the actions of the TOX247 Sample Collection Practitioner (SCP) regarding a failed due diligence device (DDD) test or a positive back to laboratory (BTL) analytical result. The PMP is the company’s trained and competent person responding to the evidence gathered by the SCP and reported positive by a laboratory toxicology reporting officer (TRO). The PMP is then responsible to manage the donor and evidence through a disciplinary process or formal decision making within corporate governance (CG). The SCP and PMP must work closely throughout the sample collection process before any formal decisions are made regarding the escalation of the programme of testing and analysis (PoTA) to the executive leadership practitioner in defence of the company’s CG.”
