for issued non-conformances. The IAQG is requesting all audited organizations
to identify which cause-code is applicable to the issued audit
non-conformances. This information will be complied and used on future
reporting on industry trends. Please note certification bodies have been
instructed not to hold up closure of a non-conformance if the cause code has
not been identified. The accreditation bodies have also stated that they will
not issue non-conformances against a CB’s process for non-conformance closure
if this information is omitted. ASACB will request its certified organizations
to supply this information to ensure data relating to this matter is factual
and brings value to the industry. The following cause code matrix has been
