PECB ISO-45001-Lead-Auditor Exam With Confidence Using Practice Dumps

The PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle is a core principle of ISO 45001 and many other management systems. It does not include environmental management, as ISO 45001 focuses on Occupational Health and Safety (OH and S), while environmental aspects are covered by ISO 14001.

Analysis of Options:

A. Treatment of Risks:Correct. Risk assessment and control are part of the Plan phase.

B. OHSMS Policy:Correct. The OH and S policy is established in the Plan phase.

C. Environment Management Program:Incorrect. This is outside the scope of ISO 45001 and pertains to ISO 14001.

D. Analyzing OHSMS Performance:Correct. Performance analysis occurs in the Check phase of the PDCA cycle.

ISO Reference:

Clause 0.3: PDCA model in ISO 45001.

ISO 45001 Clause 7.2 Competence requires the organization to:

determine the necessary competence of workers that affect or can affect OH and S performance;

ensure workers are competent, including the ability to identify hazards;

where applicable, take actions to acquire and maintain competence and evaluate the effectiveness of those actions; and

retain appropriate documented information as evidence of competence.

Based on that wording, C is clearly correct because the clause explicitly says workers must be competent, including having the ability to identify hazards. If there is no evidence of that ability, this directly supports a nonconformity against Clause 7.2.

F is also correct because Clause 7.2 requires the organization to determine the competence needed for roles and ensure workers meet it. If there is no evidence that workers’ knowledge and skills are assessed against role requirements, the organization cannot demonstrate that competence has been determined and verified.

H is the third correct answer because Clause 7.2 requires the organization to retain documented information as evidence of competence. Attendance on OH and S training is not, by itself, full proof of competence, but the absence of training records can still support a finding that the organization lacks documented evidence related to competence development and maintenance.

Why the others are not Clause 7.2 findings:

A belongs to Clause 7.3 Awareness, which requires awareness of the consequences of not conforming.

B also relates more to Clause 7.3 Awareness, which includes awareness of the ability to remove themselves from imminent and serious danger.

D is also Clause 7.3 Awareness, because workers must understand their contribution to the effectiveness of the OHSMS.

E relates to consultation and participation under Clause 5.4, not competence.

G refers to quality policy and objectives, which are not ISO 45001 OH and S competence requirements.
