In this paper, we obtain a majorant of the difference between the exact solution and any conforming approximate solution of the Reissner-Mindlin plate problem. This majorant is explicitly computable and involves constants that depend only on given data of the problem. The majorant allows us to compute guaranteed upper bounds of errors with any desired accuracy and vanishes if and only if the approximate solution coincides with the exact one.
