Thanks for all the feedback but perhaps I need to clarify my posts. I am not part of our Quality Dept, which manages all CA/PA records regardless of which Dept. is the auditee. In my role as an Internal Auditor I am often tasked with auditing the Quality Dept simply because I am from a different Dept of the same company. In the instances I described, I was auditing the Quality Dept's Internal Audit procedures and issued CA/PAs. The Quality Manager typically assigns stage owners for containment, root cause, etc. In these instances the Quality Dept itself verified the implementation and effective of the CA plan they proposed.
Question: Does this situation of Quality verifying their own CA/PAs conflict with AS9100C 8.2.2 "Auditors shall not audit their own work."?
As John notes above, "Approve the action plan and it may be seen that you [for clarification, the QM, not the auditor] compromise your impartiality and objectivity when it comes to verifying the effectiveness of the corrective action."
