PECB Certified EMS ISO 14001 Lead Auditor Sample Questions:
You are auditing a regional distribution depot of Park and Spend, a major retail chain. In a corner, you notice a steel drum sitting in a pool of liquid, which is slightly leaking across the passageway. You ask the Depot Manager what is in the drum and are told it is hydraulic oil for the forklift trucks. When you ask why it is kept there, you are told that it is not normally kept there, but one of the forklift trucks reversed into it during the previous shift when it was waiting to be moved to a maintenance area. He says that he will get the floor cleaned up right away.
Your audit trail leads to a possible nonconformity against clause 8.2 of ISO 14001. Select one option of evidence that would demonstrate nonconformity to this clause.
- A. Inadequate fire protection was provided for the depot
- B. No training in safe driving has been given to forklift drivers
- C. No spill kits were available in the depot to ensure a prompt response to oil spills
- D. Workers were not given personal protective equipment (PPE) to use when cleaning oil spills

An auditor from the headquarters of a large international chemical organisation is auditing a branch located along the bank of a river. During the opening meeting, the General Manager explained that 10 minutes before, the local environmental authority had sent an email informing that the organisation had been fined due to very high values of BOD and COD measured downstream. The General Manager said they are quite confident in solving the problem, as explained by their external compliance consultant. The auditor visited the laboratory and did not find any potential deviation. A competitor just built a plant across the river.
Match the following issues with the relevant ISO 14001 clause.
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
* Laboratory data analysis: 9.1.1
* External compliance consultant: 7.2
* Waste discharge as an environmental aspect: 6.1.2
* Use of the applicable regulation: 6.1.3
* A new plant across the river: 4.1
* Water treatment plant operational control: 8.1
* Communication with the new plant: 7.4
* Compliance with regulations: 9.1.2
In accordance with ISO 14001:2015, audit trails must be evaluated against their corresponding standard requirements.
Evaluating external factors such as the competitor's new plant across the river relates directly to understanding the organization and its context (Clause 4.1). Identifying waste discharge into the river aligns with identifying environmental aspects and associated impacts (Clause 6.1.2), while determining relevant legal standards for discharge represents determining compliance obligations (Clause 6.1.3). Evaluating the competence of external advisors, such as the compliance consultant, falls under competence requirements (Clause 7.2). External interactions or dialogue regarding shared environmental conditions fall under communication processes (Clause 7.4).
Operationally, managing water treatment operations to ensure effluent compliance represents operational planning and control (Clause 8.1). Monitoring and analyzing laboratory sampling data corresponds to monitoring, measurement, analysis, and evaluation (Clause 9.1.1). Finally, evaluating actual compliance status relative to environmental fine notifications and legal limits requires evaluating compliance (Clause
9.1.2).

The audit team leader presents the audit outcome at the closing meeting attended by the Chief Executive and the senior managers of a care home. The agenda involves the reporting of a low number of minor nonconformities in the EMS to ISO 14001. It becomes clear to the audit team leader and team members that the Chief Executive becomes increasingly agitated as the meeting progresses.
Before the audit team leader can present a summary of the audit results, the Chief Executive interrupts the report and angrily claims that the whole process is flawed and that the organisation has wasted its time on trying to get certification because it has chosen the wrong certification body.
Select the one option you would take as the audit team leader in response to the situation.
- A. Terminate the meeting to allow you to consult with your line manager in the certification body.
- B. Suggest that a meeting break is taken to allow a separate meeting with the Chief Executive to discuss his concerns.
- C. Request firmly that the Chief Executive holds back his comments until the report is completed.
- D. Bring the meeting to a close and advise that it will be rescheduled to continue at a later date.
