- C. Ask the OH5MS Manager to confirm that this action meets regulatory requirements for air purity.
- D. Seek evidence that the response action is both Implemented and effective.
Answer: D
Explanation:
The auditor should assess whether the organization's planned action (using masks in case of dust extraction failure) is both implemented and effective. This aligns with ISO 45001 requirements to ensure that control measures are functional and meet the intended objectives.
* Clause 8.1.2 (Hierarchy of Controls):The use of PPE, such as masks, is considered a last resort in the hierarchy of controls. The organization must demonstrate that the measure is:
* Implemented (e.g., PPE is available and workers are trained to use it).
* Effective (e.g., masks provide adequate protection against dust).
* Analysis of Options:
* A. Advise that the factory should cease operations if the dust extraction equipment malfunctioned.While ceasing operations may be a necessary control in extreme situations, it is not a practical or realistic recommendation unless a high-risk scenario cannot be otherwise managed.
* B. Ask the OHSMS Manager to confirm regulatory compliance.Regulatory compliance is important but does not fully address the requirement to ensure the action is effective.
* C. Seek evidence that the response action is both implemented and effective.This is the most appropriate response. The auditor must verify implementation and effectiveness to determine conformity.
* D. Suggest increasing maintenance checks.Maintenance is important for preventing equipment breakdowns, but this option does not address the immediate audit finding about the adequacy of response actions.
ISO References:
* Clause 8.1.2: Emphasizes applying the hierarchy of controls effectively.
* Clause 9.1.1: Requires monitoring and measuring controls to ensure effectiveness.

NEW QUESTION # 29
Showitoff is an organisation spcialising in the design and production of wall decorating material for the domestic market. During an ISO 45001 certification audit of the site, the auditor comes across an open, walled area just outside the maintenance department. It contains various scraps of wood and metal as well as several rusty components. Several heavy concrete beams are learning against a thin brick wall in which cracks are visible. When asked about it, the OHS Manager states that he presume that the material come from maintenance work, so it is the Maintenance Manager's responsibility.
The auditor interviews the Maintenance Manager in his department. He asks about the area outside and is told that it contains some excess materials that the Manager likes to keep in case they come in handy at some stage. The auditor points out that the wall appears to be unstable collapse at any moment. The Maintenance Manager is not aware of such a situation.

NEW QUESTION # 33
You are conducting a Stage 2 certification audit to ISO 45001 at an adventure park in the Scottish Highlands.
The park offers treetop walks, zip-line rides, walking trails, and horse-riding trips. The park is open to adults and children of any age. You are particularly interested in compliance with legal requirements and interview the Park Manager.
You: How do you evaluate the risks to participants that the various activities present?
Park Manager: Our risks are covered by insurance, and we operate under health and safety legislation that requires frequent checks of all our facilities. For example, we trust staff to check all our harnesses every morning.
You: Are you required to have an independent inspection carried out of zip lines, for example?
Park Manager: Yes, our insurance company employs a reputable body to do that sort of thing.
You: Can you show me a copy of the latest inspection report? Park Manager: I'd need to get that from the insurance organisation. I have the initial one when we opened eight years ago.
You examine the inspection report, which takes the form of a checklist that does not identify individual zip lines, treetop platforms, harnesses, or rope ladders. It is dated eight years previously and has a scribbled signature with no other identification of the inspection engineer. Select the two statements for which there is evidence of a nonconformity to ISO 45001.
Select two statements.
- A. The park did not have the required documentation to demonstrate compliance with legal requirements.
- B. The park relied on the insurance organisation to evaluate its OHS risks.
- C. The organisation did not monitor the safety checks by the staff of equipment.
- D. The inspection organisation employed by the insurance organisation was not evaluated.
- E. Testing to determine the safe loading of equipment was not carried out.
Answer: A,D
Explanation:
ISO 45001 requires organizations to identify and maintain documentation to demonstrate compliance with legal and other requirements (Clause 7.5 and Clause 9.1.2). It also requires the evaluation and control of outsourced processes (Clause 8.1.4.3).
Analysis of Options:
* A. The park did not have the required documentation to demonstrate compliance with legal requirements:Correct. The outdated and incomplete inspection report (8 years old, lacking detailed identification) fails to demonstrate compliance with health and safety legislation.
* B. The organization did not monitor the safety checks by staff of equipment:Incorrect. While there is a potential gap in monitoring, the evidence provided does not directly indicate a lack of monitoring of staff checks.
* C. The inspection organization employed by the insurance organization was not evaluated:
Correct. ISO 45001 requires the organization to evaluate outsourced services, including those provided by the inspection body, to ensure their adequacy.
* D. The park relied on the insurance organization to evaluate its OHS risks:Incorrect. Reliance on external evaluations may not constitute a nonconformity if risks are properly managed, but there is no evidence provided for noncompliance here.
* E. Testing to determine the safe loading of equipment was not carried out:Incorrect. While load testing is crucial, there is no evidence presented to confirm this specific issue as a nonconformity.
ISO References:
* Clause 7.5: Control of documented information.
* Clause 8.1.4.3: Control of outsourced processes.

Reference: ISO 19011:2018, Clause 6.3.2.
B). The audit team leader does not select the OHS audit team members.False.The audit team leader is responsible for selecting competent team members with the requisite expertise to evaluate the auditee's Occupational Health & Safety Management System (OHSMS). Selection is based on criteria such as knowledge of ISO 45001, auditing skills, and understanding of the industry.Reference: ISO 19011:2018, Clause 5.4.2 and 6.3.1.
C). The audit team leader should plan to interview each employee.False.While employee interviews are an essential part of gathering evidence during an ISO 45001 audit, interviewing every employee is impractical and unnecessary. A representative sampling strategy is used to assess compliance across various levels and departments.Reference: ISO 19011:2018, Clause 6.4.6.
D). The audit team leader should present the plan to the auditee before the Stage 2 audit.True.Presenting the audit plan to the auditee before the audit is essential to ensure all parties are informed and prepared for the audit. This practice is emphasized in ISO 19011 and supports transparency and effective audit execution.
Reference: ISO 19011:2018, Clause 6.3.3.
E). The organisation should cancel staff leave during the audit.False.ISO 45001 and related audit guidelines do not mandate the cancellation of staff leave during audits. While key personnel should be available, the audit team collaborates with the organization to plan around leave schedules to minimize disruption.Reference: Not explicitly covered in ISO 45001 or ISO 19011; falls under planning discretion.
F). The plan does not need to include the names of the senior managers.True.While the audit plan should outline the scope, objectives, and methods, it does not specifically require the inclusion of senior managers' names unless they are directly involved in the audit.Reference: ISO 19011:2018, Clause 6.3.2.

NEW QUESTION # 40
When calculating an ISO 45001 third party initial audit duration, which two of the following statements are false?
- A. Incorporate the time taken to travel to/from the audit location
- B. Include outsourced processes
- C. Include the time allocated for lunch breaks
- D. Consider the number of sites to be sampled
- E. Think about the complexity of the organization's business
- F. Consider the number of functions related to OHS management
Answer: A,C
Explanation:
Comprehensive Detailed Explanation along with All ISO 45001 Audit Reference Analysis of Each Option:
A . Consider the number of functions related to OHS management.
True.
The number of functions related to OHS management directly impacts the audit duration. More functions require additional time for the auditor to review documentation, processes, and implementation across those areas.
Reference: IAF MD 5:2020, Clause 2.3.1 (factors affecting audit time).
B . Consider the number of sites to be sampled.
True.
For multi-site organizations, the number of sites to be sampled is critical in calculating audit duration. Sampling requirements are determined using guidelines such as IAF MD 1:2022 and depend on the complexity, size, and risks associated with each site.
Reference: IAF MD 1:2022, Clause 4.2.
C . Include outsourced processes.
True.
Outsourced processes that affect the OHS management system must be evaluated as part of the audit. This includes reviewing the organization's control over such processes. Auditing these aspects impacts the audit duration.
Reference: ISO 45001:2018, Clause 8.1.4 and IAF MD 5:2020, Clause 2.3.1.
D . Include the time allocated for lunch breaks.
False.
Lunch breaks are not considered part of the audit duration as they do not contribute to the assessment of the management system. Audit time calculations exclude non-working hours, including breaks.
Reference: IAF MD 5:2020, Clause 2.5.
E . Incorporate the time taken to travel to/from the audit location.
False.
Travel time is excluded when calculating the audit duration. While travel logistics are considered in audit planning, they do not count towards the total audit time.
Reference: IAF MD 5:2020, Clause 2.5.
F . Think about the complexity of the organization's business.
True.
The complexity of the organization's business, including the nature of hazards, risks, and legal obligations, significantly affects the audit duration. More complex operations typically require longer audit times.
Reference: IAF MD 5:2020, Clause 2.3.1.
Key ISO and IAF Reference:
ISO 45001:2018: Clause 9.2.2 (Audit Program).
IAF MD 5:2020: "Determination of Audit Time of Quality and Environmental Management Systems." IAF MD 1:2022: "Audit and Certification of Multiple Sites Based on Sampling."
