Do both the certification body and the auditor need to be accredited for these criteria? On the  Chartered Quality Institute and the International
Register of Certificated Auditors website, there is only a search for auditors, not certification bodies. Chartered Quality Institute seems to be a membership organization and it's not clear if they offer personnel accreditations. Are auditors accredited to this institution accredited to ISO 45001?

Certification bodies would be accredited by accreditations that are part of IAF MRA. Was that the intent? Or is truly about auditor certification?

Submitter Proposed Solution

Suggest confirming language and requirements. For example: Certification shall be obtained from a certification body accredited by an accreditation body that is a signatory to the IAF MLA with the appropriate scope of accreditation.
