But the ISO certified industries will take relaxed view after getting the ISO certification. The industries which are not certified by the ISO are taking the business very seriously rather than the ISO certified industries. They work towards giving the better quality. It is also observed in the ISO certified industries that the more number of respondents are undecided. This means the employees are free to decide on the benefits or loss due to ISO adoption.. The ISO Certified industries are having marginally better quality than the non - ISO Certified Industries.
