An audit team leader arrives at a steel fabrication organisation that manufactures fire escape stairs...

The correct answers are B and C .

This question relates mainly to ISO 14001:2015 Clause 5.2 — Environmental policy , Clause 6.2 — Environmental objectives and planning to achieve them , and Clause 7.3 — Awareness .

B. Reducing environmental impacts — Correct

The policy states that the organisation is committed to protecting the environment and enhancing environmental performance. Reducing environmental impacts is directly aligned with this commitment, especially for installation activities where risks may include paint waste, spills, emissions, waste generation, and contamination of site drains.

C. Promoting environmental awareness — Correct

The policy says personnel should act responsibly and comply with relevant legislation. Subcontractor personnel need appropriate awareness so they understand how their work affects environmental performance and legal compliance.

The other options are not the best answers:

A. Planning for site environmental resources — Incorrect

Resources may be needed to achieve objectives, but this is more related to planning and support, not an environmental objective that directly aligns with the policy.

D. Complying with the EMS scope — Incorrect

The EMS scope defines boundaries and applicability. It is not normally an environmental objective.

E. Continual improvement of production performance — Incorrect

ISO 14001 focuses on continual improvement of the EMS and environmental performance, not general production performance.

F. Involvement of stakeholders — Incorrect

Stakeholder involvement may be relevant to context and communication, but it is not directly stated as an objective in the policy.

Therefore, the two objectives that best align with the policy are B. Reducing environmental impacts and C. Promoting environmental awareness .
