COVID-19 (short for coronavirus disease 2019) has been dominating the headlines for the best part of a year now. Covid is an infectious disease whose symptoms include fever, coughing and shortness and breath; governments all over the world are taking action in an effort to get through this pandemic, and many businesses are following suit.

What are the benefits of remote auditing?
If the ongoing coronavirus outbreak has spurred your business to compose a continuity plan for future emergencies, switching to a remote ISO certification body like ISO Accelerator could be a key part of this plan.
All of our audits are conducted remotely, with no need for an auditor to visit your premises in person. Not only is this better for the environment, it's also ideal for situations where you're trying to limit travel and face-to-face contact with other people.
Remote audits are preferable to in-person audits right now because conducting the audit online eliminates the risk of COVID-19 transmission.
