Selecting Internal Auditors
Our company achieved ISO 9001:2000 registration in April 2003. We selected Internal Auditing Teams ~November 2002 and those Internal Auditors are still in place.
I've been asked the question recently by an Internal Auditor "Hey, how long do I have to DO this, anyways?"
Good question. I started here a few weeks ago and have learned that no one thought up any sort of rotation program for choosing new Internal Auditors.
I would like to know how other companies do this. Or do you stick your original team with audit responsibility for life (ha, ha, ha). I plan on asking Department Supervisors to nominate people and then have the outgoing teams train the incoming teams for a few months (work on audits together, etc) before switching to the new "team".
Any thoughts? This is all new to me and I've been baptized by fire going through our first (successful!) surveillance audit. Thanks.
