påkontrollerat

Påkontrollerat is a Swedish term used to describe a state in which a subject, object, or process has undergone inspection, verification, or surveillance and is considered to be under control. The construction combines auf prepositionen på (on, upon) with kontrollerat, the past participle of kontrollera (to control, to inspect). The form can align with different noun genders: påkontrollerat (neuter), påkontrollerad (common gender), and plural forms such as påkontrollerade, depending on the noun it modifies.

Etymology and usage notes

The term is not a fixed technical standard across all Swedish regulatory contexts. It functions as a descriptive or status label rather than a formal designation in many industries. It is commonly encountered in internal documentation, checklists, or informal notes to indicate that a verification step has been completed and that the item or activity is deemed to be under acceptable control. In regulated sectors, more formal terms such as godkänd (approved), inspekterad (inspected), or granskad (audited) may be preferred, but påkontrollerat can still appear as a shorthand in notes or summaries.

Contexts

Påkontrollerat can appear in manufacturing, logistics, quality assurance, food safety, health and safety, and project management contexts. It may describe products that have passed a control point, documents that have been reviewed, or processes that have undergone verification.
