Impartiality Policy

Commitment to objectivity, independence and conflict-free certification

OFFICIAL IMPARTIALITY POLICY STATEMENT

Al-Namaa Foundation for Certification (AKF) is fully committed to maintaining impartiality in all management
system certification activities in accordance with ISO 17021 standards.

AKF ensures objectivity, manages conflicts of interest, and retains full authority over certification decisions through
structured risk assessment, monitoring, and documented control processes.

All personnel are required to declare independence from commercial, financial, or external pressures that may influence
impartiality, and individuals involved in consultancy are excluded from related certification activities.

AKF operates non-discriminatory policies, maintains separation between auditing and certification decisions, and avoids
any relationships or services that could compromise neutrality.

The organization strictly prohibits involvement in consultancy, system implementation, or any activity that could create
conflicts of interest with certification services.
