Methods of auditing
• Methods depend upon time and type of auditing • Announced Vs Unannounced audit • Incidence audit (Audit due to calamity/ accidents /happenings) • Addition and deletion of units- linked audit • Standard version change audit • Desktop audit Basic Skeleton: 1. Pre-audit documents 2. Inspector documents 3. Opening and closing meeting 4. Scopes audit onsite & Documents audit- Inputs, labeling, linked source documents) 1. Checklist and Standard reference for checklist 2. Non conformity and Observations

are not commingled
• organic fibers are not contaminated by
contact with prohibited substances.
• All organic raw materials must be clearly la
beled and identified as such at all stages thro
ugh the processing chain
