Number, and/or ( 3) the AIHA-LAP, LLC accreditation logo with

• Language for use in advertising: “_____ Laboratory (ID ______)
is accredited by the AIHA Laboratory Accreditation Programs
(AIHA-LAP), LLC in the _____ accreditation program(s) for
_____ Fields of Testing as documented by the Scope of Accreditation Certificate and associated Scope.” Blanks are to be filled
with the applicable terms, as listed on the accreditation certificate ( 7.2.1).
• AIHA-LAP, LLC accredited laboratories may also use the follow-
ing statement in their communication media discussing the lab-
oratory only, in conjunction with 7.2.1:
“AIHA-LAP, LLC accreditation complies with the ISO/IEC Stan-
dard 17025:2005 requirements, but this does not imply ISO cer-
tification or registration.”
• Laboratories with multiple locations must clearly identify the
location of the accredited laboratory(s) and their applicable ac-
creditation programs in their communication media ( 7.2.3).
• The laboratory shall not display a statement of AIHA-LAP, LLC
accreditation or the AIHA-LAP, LLC accreditation logo on
products. Furthermore, a statement of AIHA-LAP, LLC accreditation or the AIHA-LAP, LLC accreditation logo may not be
displayed on communication media or any other laboratory
materials that are outside the scope of accreditation for which
the laboratory is accredited by the AIHA-LAP, LLC ( 7. 6. 3).
• Accreditation by AIHA-LAP, LLC does not imply that a product,
process, system, or person is approved by AIHA-LAP, LLC. Accordingly, a statement of accreditation or an AIHA-LAP, LLC
logo may not be used in a manner suggesting or implying that
a product, process, system or person is approved or certified by
AIHA-LAP, LLC or that AIHA-LAP, LLC is otherwise certifying
something other than the laboratory itself ( 7. 6. 7).
Service for Labs—and Users
AIHA-LAP, LLC hopes these changes make it easier for users to be
assured that a laboratory to which they are sending samples for
analysis is accredited for those particular analytes. We also hope
that this serves our accredited laboratories well, since sending
testing work to an accredited laboratory satisfies the requirement
for measurement traceability under ISO 9001 and ISO/IEC
17025:2005.
