The Bureau of Standards Jamaica (BSJ) has restructured its operations from an inspection and enforcement agency to a trade facilitator and business enabler.
Speaking at a JIS 'Think Tank', yesterday Executive Director of the BSJ, Stephen Wedderburn, said the restructuring will see the National Compliance and Regulatory Agency (NCRA) taking on the regulatory arm of the Bureau, and the BSJ will drive standards development.
Wedderburn said the repositioned Bureau will also assist businesses through the development, promotion and use of standards.
He further noted that training, testing, label assessment and calibration services, as well as certification through the NCRA will be added functions to support the new directive of the agency.
