Scoring System Guidance
Excellent = Awarded where excellence is observed and the auditor is satisfied that there is little scope for improvement in a category to satisfy industry best practice or Client requirements
Compliant = Awarded when the site is fully compliant in a category but where the potential exists for some minor improvement with regard to industry best practice or Client requirements
Observation = Awarded where a condition is observed in a category which is unlikely to result in potential injury, harm or damage, and which may not necessarily require corrective action, but which could be enhanced to more effectively satisfy industry best practice or Client requirements
Improvement Item = Awarded where a minor single item is observed in a category which requires corrective action, but which is unlikely to result in injury, harm or damage, or which falls below industry best practice or Client requirements.
Minor Non-Conformance = Awarded where more than one minor item, or where a single more serious item is observed in a category which requires corrective action, which could result in injury, harm or damage, or which falls below industry best practice or Client requirements.
Non-Conformance = Awarded where more than one non-conformance item is observed in any category, or where a significant breach of industry best practice or Client requirements is observed which could result in injury, harm or damage
Not-Applicable = The category is awarded full compliance marks
Overall Audit R A G Rating
Green = Few action/improvement items
Amber = Multiple action/improvement items, or a single Non-Conformance item in any category
Red = Multiple action/improvement items; more than 3 minor non-conformance items, or more than one Non-Conformance category
