How Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control works in SkillScorer
Score
Each operator in a plant is scored on the Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank operators, compare two side by side, or compare your plants against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control skills need attention. Reports also follow each shift supervisor's plant.
Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control scorecard: common questions
What skills does the Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control scorecard covers 10 skills: Analytical Testing Technique, Instrument Calibration and Maintenance, Sample Handling and Chain of Custody, Data Recording, Calculations and Reporting, Out-of-Specification Response, Formulation and Trial Support, Chemical Hygiene and Laboratory Safety, Quality Systems and Audits, Problem Solving and Root Cause Analysis and Communication with Production. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are operators scored in Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control?
Every operator is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one plant and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control?
Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control starts with these levels (called “Grade” in the app): Technician, Analyst, Senior Analyst, Lab Supervisor and Quality Manager. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Chemical Laboratory & Quality Control skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In chemical manufacturing the app talks about operators, plants and shift supervisors, and you can change any of those words too.
