Dear All,
Our company is obtaining OHSAS 18001:2007. Now my question is recently internal audit been carried out at our one of the site location and that site has not displayed the OHSAS 18001:2007 certificate though all the compliance are in place as per requirement. The auditor has put it under Non-Conformity (NC). Weather it is NC or Suggestion only. Kindly guide.
Thanks,

Its not a Non-conformity. Under which clause he put NC and ask / demand the auditor to show where it is written in the standard.

No... It can neither be NC nor be observation.
You as an auditee have a right to ask NC against which clause have you been given NC?
For all NC or observation - there has to be reference clause against which NC is given.
Certicates may be displayed in MR office, but not mandatory. But yes Policy has to be displayed, rather communicated to all.
Kindly provide details against which clause has the auditor given you NC. One more q's - have the internal auditors qualified? that is are they certified Lead Auditors / certified for Internal Auditors for ISO 18001 ?
