Scenario 7: POLKA is a car manufacturing company based in Stockholm, Sweden. The company has around 14,000 employees working in different sectors which help with the design, painting, assembling, and test drives of the final product. The company is widely known for its qualitative products and affordable prices. In order to retain their reputation, POLKA implemented a quality management system (QMS) based on ISO 9001.

Before applying for certification, the company decided to conduct an internal audit to check whether there are any nonconformities in their QMS and if the requirements of ISO 9001 are being fulfilled. The top management appointed Sean, the internal auditor, as the team leader of the internal audit team. Sean required from the top management to have unrestricted access to the employees and executives of POLKA and to the documented information. Furthermore, Sean required to establish a team with a large number of auditors, considering the size and the complexity of the organization. The top management of POLKA agreed with Sean's requirements.

The top management, in cooperation with Sean, assigned 10 more employees to the audit team. Following that. Sean planned the audit activities and assigned the roles and responsibilities to each auditor. They began by interviewing employees of different manufacturing departments to check whether they are aware of the process of the QMS implementation. While conducting these activities, one of the auditors asked Sean for permission to audit the department in which he worked on a daily basis, as he was very familiar with the processes of the department.

Along the way, the teams findings showed that the staff were trained, documented information was updated, and the QMS fulfilled the requirements of ISO 9001. The internal audit took three weeks to complete, and on the last week the audit team held a final meeting

The team shared their results and together drafted the audit report This report was submitted to the top management of the company. The report was maintained as documented information, and was available to the relevant interested parties.

Based on the scenario above, answer the following question:

According to Scenario 7, one of the auditors requested permission from Sean to audit the department in which he worked on a daily basis. Should Sean grant the auditor permission?

XYZ Corporation is an organisation that employs 100 people. As audit team leader, you are conducting a

certification audit at Stage 1. When reviewing the quality management system (QMS) documentation, you

find that quality objectives have been set for every employee in the organisation except top management.

The Quality Manager complains that this has created a lot of resistance to the QMS, and the Chief Executive

is asking questions about how much it will cost. He asks for your opinion on whether this is the correct

method of setting objectives.

Three months after Stage 1, you return to XYZ Corporation to conduct a Stage 2 certification audit as Audit

Team Leader with one other auditor. You find that the Quality Manager has cancelled the previous quality

objectives for all employees and replaced them with a single objective for himself. This states that "The

Quality Manager will drive multiple improvements in the QMS in the next year". The Quality Manager indicates

that this gives him the authority to issue instructions to department managers when quality improvement is

needed. He says that this approach has the full backing of senior management. He shows you the latest

Quality Improvement Request that was included in the last management review.

After further auditing, the issues below were found. Select two statements that apply to the term

`nonconformity'.

You are conducting a third-party audit to ISO 9001 and interviewing the Training Manager. She explains that training is more

important than ever because the organisation has had to reduce the number of staff employed. Many of the remaining staff

are now required to be 'multi-skilled'. You ask to see plans for the multi-skilling training and are shown plans that look

comprehensive, and include both 'on the job" training and internal and external training courses.

The records indicate that several staff required parts of their training to be repeated one month after the first training was

provided. You ask why this was needed and are told that an investigation of customer complaints identified that several staff

members did not complete certain tasks in the correct manner. The extra training was therefore recommended as a

corrective action.
