Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, B, C, F

A follow-up audit may be carried out where nonconformities are major. This is true because a major nonconformity is a situation that raises significant doubt about the ability of the organization's management system to achieve its intended results, and therefore requires immediate corrective action.A follow-up audit is necessary to verify the effectiveness of the corrective action and the conformity of the management system12.

A follow-up audit may be carried out where nonconformities are minor. This is true because a minor nonconformity is a situation that does not affect the capability of the management system to achieve its intended results, but represents a deviation from the specified requirements.A follow-up audit may be conducted to check the implementation of the corrective action and the improvement of the management system12.

The outcomes of a follow-up audit should be reported to top management and the audit team leader who carried out the audit where the nonconformities were initially identified. This is true because the top management is responsible for ensuring the effectiveness and continual improvement of the management system, and the audit team leader is accountable for the audit process and the audit conclusions.The follow-up audit report should provide them with objective evidence of the status of the nonconformities and the corrective actions taken by the auditee13.

The outcomes of a follow-up audit should be reported to the individual managing the audit programme and the audit client. This is true because the individual managing the audit programme is responsible for planning, implementing, monitoring and reviewing the audit activities, and the audit client is the organization or person requesting an audit.The follow-up audit report should inform them of the results of the follow-up audit and any changes in the certification status of the auditee13.

A follow-up audit in all instances? That's like saying you have to go back and check your homework after every question. Talk about micromanaging!

Suspending the client's certification? Whoa, that's heavy stuff. Gotta really mess up to get that kind of punishment. Hope I never have to be on the receiving end of that one!

Lowering a major nonconformity to minor status? Sounds like a get-out-of-jail-free card to me. I'd take that deal any day! But I guess the auditors have to be the ones to make that call.

Reporting the outcomes to top management and the audit team leader? Clearly that's the right thing to do. Gotta keep everyone in the loop, even if it means a few extra emails. Just part of the job, I guess.

A follow-up audit is definitely required for major nonconformities, that's a no-brainer. But for minor ones, I'm not so sure. Gotta keep a close eye on those pesky details, you know?
