Assessments and Audits

Q2.  Will SMS replace Transport Canada audits?

The need for such audits, together with other forms of regulatory oversight, will remain. However, the existence of an effective SMS will be an important factor in assessing the optimum audit frequency of an organization. Organizations with a sound SMS can expect to be audited much less frequently than their less successful counterparts.
