**5.6 Production**

Absenteeism has a direct influence on the manufacturing processes. The lack of personnel and the protective measures for personnel and products can affect production in several modes:



**Table 7.** *PHA of production.* *Dealing with Unforeseen Circumstances. Implication of Risk Management in the COVID-19… DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.97408*

Any change affecting operations and its related monitoring has to be detected and assessed (**Table 7**).

Consider the need to inform customers and, if appropriate, authorities, on product supply shortages and quality problems in products.

Revision of production programs and schedules might be inevitable and then it is necessary to establish priorities using RM too, as seen in **Table 5**.

#### **5.7 Quality control (QC)**

The QC laboratory is a unit and as such, it shares, in small scale, almost all the problems that we have mentioned for the plant as a whole. The unit needs supplies (reactives, culture media, standards, etc.) and develops operations. Thus, it is necessary to assess all these aspects.

Here absenteeism has a direct influence on quality control products. The lack of personnel and the protective measures for personnel and products can affect analysis in several modes (**Table 8**):
