A method for managing a polishing apparatus including downforce detecting means for detecting a downforce applied to a polishing target wafer, includes steps of: calculating a difference between a first downforce detected by the downforce detecting means at a first period at which the polishing apparatus stands by for polishing the wafer, and a second downforce detected by the downforce detecting means at a second period at which the polishing apparatus polishes the wafer, as an actual downforce actually applied to the wafer at the second period; and monitoring the actual downforce.
