On our DoCs we have always listed our Sales and Service Office in the
EU for our European Contact. The Machinery Directive required that we
include the NAME of a Person in the EU, which we have been doing for
several years now. HOWEVER, this person just recently quit our company.
Now What?
What indeed.
What good is his name on all our previous DoCs if he no longer works
for our company?
Zilch.
Does he personally still hold some responsibility for products and a
company he no longer works for?
Extremely unlikely, unless he was personally involved in a deception.
The Directive is famous for lack of practical thought during its
compilation. Do what you think best, and document it so it could be
produced in court if necessary. You can include a text that explains the
impracticality.
