Does anyone have the table used by Certification Body to define the man-day hours of an Auditor x number of employees in a company? Where does this table come from?
The "tables" are available in the IAF documents hyperlinked below.
Please note that, in the US, ANAB accredited CB's were informed by ANAB to keep using the IAF Guidance documents to Guides 62 (QMS) and 66 (EMS) via Heads Up #
