Mandatory vs Voluntary Robot Standards
Not every standard is a legal requirement, but all of them are useful.
Two categories
| Category | Nature |
|---|---|
| Mandatory | Referenced by regulation, or required by the contract |
| Voluntary | Guidance that becomes binding when you claim compliance |
How to work with them
- Identify which standards are referenced by the applicable regulation for your market.
- Decide which voluntary standards you will claim and design to them consistently.
- Record the standard number and edition wherever you make a claim.
Applicable legal requirements vary by market. Confirm them with the responsible authority or a specialist.
