Overview
ISO 10002:2018 gives guidelines for the design, planning, operation and improvement of a complaints-handling process, and applies to organisations of any size in the private, public or voluntary sector. It is guidance rather than a certifiable requirements standard: it recommends rather than mandates, so organisations self-declare conformity or use it to reinforce an existing quality management system. Written to be compatible with ISO 9001, it rests on the principles of visibility, accessibility, responsiveness, objectivity, confidentiality, a customer-focused approach, accountability and continual improvement.
The documentation follows the life of a complaint. A complaints-handling policy establishes management commitment, responsibilities and resources; separate procedures cover how a complaint is made and how it is handled, from receipt and acknowledgement through tracking, investigation and response to closure, communication of the decision and follow-up. Spreadsheet registers and analysis sheets hold the complaint register, feedback against closure and feedback analysis, so recurring issues surface as data rather than anecdote.
What this system covers
- Receipt, acknowledgement and registration — how a complaint is made, logged and acknowledged
- Investigation, response and closure — tracking, the decision, communicating it and following up
- Complaint data and improvement — recurring issues, lessons learned and corrective action
- Customer feedback — feedback forms, satisfaction with the closure and trend analysis
- Governance of the process — complaints policy, responsibilities, internal audit and management review
- Competence of complaint handlers — induction, training records and role descriptions
Who it's for
Suited to customer service leads and quality managers whose complaint volume has outgrown an informal process, or who have been asked by a customer, a board or a regulator to show how complaints are received, judged and resolved. It is equally useful where an ISO 9001 system exists but its complaint-handling evidence is thin. You end up with one consistent route for every complaint and a defensible basis for self-declaring conformity.
