ISO 9001 News ISO 9001:2015 Amendment 1 Published - Determination of Climate Change Relevance * Poll added May 2024

ISO has published Amendment 1 to ISO 9001:2015. The PDF version is available for free at the link below.

ISO and the IAF have published a joint communique regarding this amendment and ISO also has an article on it (see links below).

Based on the above information (and the lack of evidence of any TC 176/SC 2 vote on this amendment), it appears that these changes were approved by the Technical Management Board (TMB) but did not go through the normal TC 176/SC 2 consensus process.

Yep. As far as I know this has been adopted by most Type A Management System Standards.

ISO pretending to be relevant when it comes to climate change as part of a politically motivated drive.

They don't need no stinkin' vote or consensus! They are bound and determined to shove this crap down our throats no matter what. More rules for the little people that they can ignore with impunity because they are the ruling elite.

Added to 4.1 Added: The organization shall determine whether climate change is a relevant issue.

Answer - While sitting around eating burgers and drinking we determined NOPE!

Let's see... cows fart and we know that depletes the ozone layer; therefore by eating burgers and ensuring cows are killed, we have saved the planet. That logic works, right?

Heck yeah, we also forget the "people" factor for GHG impact.

Great emissions to amend Quality system standard

Not doing it. Take my cert.

What I still find interesting is the lack of clarification of whether or not the assessment of the effect is of climate change on the organization or the organizations effect on climate change. I get the former and fear the latter.
