    No, there are no mandatory processes in ISO 9001:2015. Each organization should design a model about how it works based on the process-approach.

  • Implementation of ISO 27002


    Answer:

    First it is important to note that ISO 27002 is a support standard to implement ISO 27001, and it is not certifiable, which makes difficult to track the organizations which have implemented it.

    On the other hand, since ISO 27001 is a certifiable standard you can track which organizations have implemented it, but it requires some effort, because there is no central list of certified organizations (you must consult each certification body to track which companies are certified by them).

    However, the ISO site provides an ISO survey where you can find general information about certifications, like total quantity, quantity per country, quantity industry, etc. It does not nominate organizations.

    You can find this survey at this link: https://isotc.iso.org/livelink/livelink?func=ll&objId=18808772&objAction=browse&viewType=1 />

  • Certification of remote companies


    Answer:

    In terms of certification you can state as location (company's headquarters) the home address of the founder / CEO of the company or the address of the office where the people accountable for the company can be found (you should ask the certification body what their preference would be in such situation). You can present this address as company's address and all other locations can be considered remote locations and can be audited accordingly.
  • Result of review

    We’re thinking we need to add a “Review Record Form” that we would fill out and sign before submitting our proposal to the customer; this form would be used to meet ISO requirements. However, we don’t otherwise see value in retaining the document. Couldn’t we just call our signed contract the “…documented information… on the results of the review…” that ISO 9001 requires in section 8.2.3.2 and not add another form into the mix?

    Answer
    When reading your description I was thinking in your proposal at the end. Why not consider both the proposal and the signed contract as evidence of review? I just see one possible problem: what if the client in the RFP does not include relevant legal or implicit requirements? If that is the case your proposed form could be useful to ensure that they are considered in the proposal.

  • Keeping records


    Answer
    Is each organization certified? Is the common project under the scope of each certified management system? Let us suppose the answer is yes to both questions. Minutes can be kept on paper or on digital format. Even if minutes are written by an organization, the other, upon receipt can check the content and formally approve it or not.

  • ISO 45001 Measurement requirements


    Answer:
    While I can’t write your report for you, some things you need to understand about he OH&S policy, OH&S objectives and OH&S legal requirements is that they will each have an aspect of measurement associated with them. The OH&S policy is the overall goal of the OHSMS, and as such the overall OH&S performance needs to be measured in accordance with the policy.
    The OH&S objectives need to be in line with the policy, and are intended to be measurable improvement goals for the company. For instance, an objective could be to reduce near miss accidents by 20% in the next 6 months. So, for this objective you will need to be monitoring and measuring the near miss accidents so you know if they are reduced.
    As for the legal requirements, there is a clause in the ISO 45001 s tandard which requires you to measure your compliance to your obligations, and legal requirements are obligations. Not only do you need to measure how complaint you are to these obligations, some legal requirements may also require measurement as well, such as the amount of air emissions.
    For more information on these topics I would suggest you look into our blog which covers many of these topics in more detail (https://advisera.com/45001academy/blog/) and to learn more about the ISO 45001 requirements see our free whitepaper: Clause-by-clause explanation of ISO 45001:2018, https://info.advisera.com/45001academy/free-download/clause-by-clause-explanation-of-iso-45001
  • GDPR and the privacy policy


    Answer:

    A Privacy Policy or a Privacy Notice is compulsory regardless if the data which is collected is processed for marketing purposes. The requirement comes from article 13 of the EU GDPR.

    The content of a Privacy Notice is described in art. 13 and 14 of the EU GDPR.

    You can find more information about the contents of a Privacy Notice from our webinar "Privacy Notices under the EU GDPR (https://advisera.com/eugdpracademy/webinar/privacy-notices-under-the-eu-gdpr-free-webinar-on-demand/)
