Would like to vent a bit about QA audits. I understand the need for QA but to ding people for leaving out a word that does not make or break a report and then allowing whole paragraphs to be deleted because that is the "form" the company prefers is hypocritical to me.

QA audits
I quit over this. The QA's were not together on anything, one would mark something wrong and another one would okay it. I did not have to put up with this silliness. I agree, it did not make a bit of difference and they were wrong so much of the time. mh
Monthly audits = QA score. sm
Usually companies audit your work monthly. They will pull 5 or 10 reports you have transcribed and do a random QA check on them. If you have critical errors, they will deduct whole points, noncritical errors usually a half point.
If you total QA score is below 98% three or more times in a row, some companies will do what they can to help you, put you back on QA review for a while so every report will go to QA. Other companies may just fire you or let you go.
Is this the answer your were looking for?
