An organisation needs a way to identify changes relevant to its activities and decide what action follows. Certification alone does not establish legal compliance, and an old report about proposed legislation should not be treated as current law.
Questions to follow in an audit
- Who checks which changes apply to the organisation?
- How are competent advice and implementation responsibilities arranged?
- What evidence shows that required changes reached the workplace?
Connect the records with practice
Trace one relevant change from its authoritative source through assessment, assigned action and confirmation of completion.
These are illustrative audit trails, not findings about a named organisation, technical instructions or a guarantee of a particular result. The appropriate evidence depends on the activities, risks and agreed scope. The organisation remains responsible for its operations and legal obligations.
