Two police stations in Villupuram get ISO certification

The police stations at Tindivanam and Brammadesam in Villupuram district have received ISO 9001:2015 certification.

Their record in law enforcement and prevention, detection and investigation of crimes, response to emergencies and provision of support services for maintaining peace in their jurisdiction have met the criteria for the ISO certification, according to the certification document.

The two stations have also bagged the award for ‘Workplace Assessment for Safety and Hygiene’ (WASH), a scheme run by the Quality Council of India for commitment to safety and hygiene at the workplace. The stations geared up for the certification a few months ago by adding additional facilities for members of the public.

Superintendent of Police N. Shreenatha said the two stations received the certification for streamlining the station records and processes and maintenance of cleanliness and an visitor-friendly atmosphere.

Additional Superintendent of Police Abhishek Gupta took the lead in the certification process. The two stations have a garden, a reception hall and a mini-library among other facilities. They also have a surveillance camera system.
