his/her work (Guide <strong>STUK</strong> 1.2) . <strong>STUK</strong> employees have to observe the management<br />

Internal audits. The main purpose of the audits is to make clear whether or not the<br />

<strong>STUK</strong> processes <strong>and</strong> tasks are performed according to the requirements of the<br />

management system (Guide <strong>STUK</strong> 6.1).<br />

External audits. The main purpose is the same as above, but sometimes is advisable<br />

to hear opinions also from experts other than those of <strong>STUK</strong> itself (Guide <strong>STUK</strong><br />

6.1).<br />

Management reviews. These reviews try to find out if the management system is<br />

working as it should (Guide <strong>STUK</strong> 6.4).<br />

Self assessments. These assessments try to find out if there is something to be<br />

improved in the management system (Guide <strong>STUK</strong> 6.3).<br />
