Record Retention in the pharmaceutical industry entails the systematic preservation and management of documents, records, and data generated during manufacturing and compliance activities. This practice, guided by defined policies, specifies the types of records to keep, their retention durations, storage solutions, access controls, and disposal methods, aligning with legal, regulatory, and business needs. It is crucial for ensuring data integrity, traceability, regulatory compliance, and safeguarding legal rights, thereby maintaining a reliable archive of pharmaceutical manufacturing processes and compliance records for accountability and regulatory scrutiny.
