2020 in Review and Call for Internal Auditor Nominations
Do our practices conform to our guiding principles and the promises we have set for ourselves? The biggest step forward for the journal is the introduction of an Internal Audit System, which you can read in detail on our web site. We believe it can considerably raise the quality of the journal and its transparency progressively over time.
The Internal Audit System aims to evaluate the work of the journal in applying its policies and procedures. The overall evaluation comprises a quality analysis of the current state-of-affairs of the journal. This relates to evaluating performance quality in editorial duties, while providing recommendations for quality improvement in the editorial work.
The specific aim of the audit is to identify strengths and weaknesses, which consequently will be used to devise an action plan for improvement. Nominations for an Internal Auditor are made until 31st December 2020, and the elections will be held in the first week of January 2021.
