Internal audit role
Internal audits check whether the OH&S MS is implemented and effective — especially for high-risk activities and contractor interfaces. Desk audits alone miss field failures.
Programs should prioritize risk and past performance across projects and sites.
Field-centered auditing
Sample work at height, lifting, energy isolation, traffic management, and other relevant hazards. Interview workers and supervisors; verify participation channels work. Write findings that drive hazard reduction, not only document edits.
Maintain auditor OH&S competence and impartiality.

CB audits expect completed internal audits and followed-up findings. Treat internal audit as a safety improvement tool first.
Consultancy vs certification
Beyond Carbon provides ISO consultancy, implementation support, documentation assistance, and audit preparation support. Independent certification bodies issue certificates after successful certification audits. Beyond Carbon does not present itself as a certification body or accreditation body.
