Sažetak

Laboratory accreditation is formal proof of competence for testing laboratories and compliance with internationally recognized standards. Despite the increased initial financial investment in the laboratory, accreditation gives confidence in its results and increases its competitiveness on the market. It is also one of the criteria required for obtaining the status of an official laboratory in Croatia. The most objective quality indicators are the results of interlaboratory trials. Another important indicator is customer satisfaction. By raising the level of technical competence of the laboratory in terms of equipment and environmental conditions, and staff training in particular, standards of modern laboratory diagnostics and analytical standards have been met.
