TS 13320

TS 13320 is a workplace standard that sets out general rules for businesses providing media monitoring and media follow-up services. It addresses the physical characteristics of the premises, the way the service is organized, and the general characteristics expected of personnel. In practical terms, it supports a structured environment for collecting, sorting, summarizing, and delivering media information reliably.

Service environment and organisation

In general technical context, media monitoring services gather information from newspapers, magazines, broadcasts, online content, and similar sources, then classify, process, and present it to clients. That makes workplace layout, information handling, record keeping, and continuity of operations especially important. The scope given for TS 13320 states that it covers general rules for structural characteristics, management, and personnel characteristics of media monitoring services, but it does not provide the detailed clause content here.

Personnel profile and service quality

Staff in this field typically need to work carefully and consistently with content tracking, news selection, verification, archiving, and client-oriented reporting. In media monitoring, accurate categorization and timely delivery are central to service quality. The standard offers a general framework for this type of workplace; however, specific test methods, numerical limits, or detailed technical criteria are not identified in the supplied scope information.
