Management of the Metal Removal Fluid Environment

Your rating is calculated as follows:

1. For both Part I and Part II of the checklist, a "no" answer to any of the critical (C) questions results in a failing assessment, except that a one-year grace period from the first self-assessment is granted so that the written management program can be developed.
   
   
2. For Part I of the checklist, rating is arrived at as follows:
   
   
   1. A failing assessment is given if

             fewer than 50% of the I (Important) questions are answered "yes" 
             any of the six sections of Part I receives less than a 40% score
   

2. A marginal assessment is made if

50% to 75% of the I questions are answered "yes" AND
each section of questions receives a minimum score of 40%.

3. A passing assessment requires that

75% of the I questions are answered "yes" AND
each section of questions receives a minimum score of 40%

3. For I questions on Part II of the checklist, a minimum of 40% is required as the overall score of each department, system, or process. (There is no requirement, however, that each section of Part II receive 40%.)
   
   
4. The G (Good Practice) questions are not used in determining the final rating. However, they are indicators of the quality of the overall management program.
   
   
5. While an overall percentage is calculated to aid in the continuous improvement process, the Overall Rating is the minimum rating received on Part I or Part II.
