The performance of NABCB in India is deeply concerning and warrants serious attention. It appears to have become a stagnant organization, overseen by individuals lacking competence and awareness of NABCB's core objectives. Despite its affiliation with QCI, NABCB has inadequately monitored conformity assessment bodies (CABs) and certification standards, neglecting its duty to uphold consumer interests. Furthermore, NABCB's endorsement of ISO-like substandard quality certifications is troubling. The organization remains passive regarding the commercialization of quality and endorses self-proclaimed Mutual Recognition Arrangement (MRA) promoters such as IAF, contributing to financial exploitation without adequate oversight of Accreditation Bodies (ABs). The inefficacy and lack of foresight displayed by NABCB have left Indian consumers vulnerable to subpar products and services. Urgent measures are required to overhaul and reassess NABCB's role and operations, reinstating confidence and ensuring consumer protection across India.

The work of preparing standards and guidelines for ASIS International is carried out through its various committees and governed by the ASIS Commission on Standards and Guidelines. The process involving overall Standards and Guidelines development is driven by subject matter experts and as well as other stakeholders interested in (or affected by) the subject matter. The cross collaboration of members within these committees produce deliverables that are market driven and ultimately help serve the needs of security practitioners, including those who are pursuing board certification opportunities, or who are looking for best practice solutions which can help address industry-specific concerns and/or issues inherent to a specific vertical. This week, members of the technical committee that will be helping to revise the *ASIS Investigations Standard* had its kickoff meeting. Over the next several months, the group will be meeting to formulate updated guidance for the industry on properly managing and conducting investigations, including approaches to keep in mind relative to suitably gathering and documenting information based on facts, in order to produce a successful investigative work product. My thanks to Patrick Cooper - PCI - CTM, who is the chairperson helping to oversee the efforts of all contributing members. The collective backgrounds & pedigree of all members involved in working on this Committee in advancing this most noble of work has me honored and humbled. I look forward to collaborating with all of you during the next several months, and hope to see many of you at #GSX2024. My special thanks to Aivelis Opicka, Director of Standards and Guidelines, and also to ASIS International, for allowing me to contribute to this process. For over a decade, ASIS has been an important part of my professional portfolio, and I am deeply appreciative of being selected to participate in this endeavor. Thank you for allowing me to give back to the organization, as well as its nearly thirty five thousand members worldwide.   “…And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness love.” 2 Peter 1:5-7 #Investigations #MyASIS #StrongerTogether

Reasonably practicable is: Balance or near-balance between the risk and the effort, time and cost to take precautions against it. The term "Reasonably Practicable" is often used when it is difficult to fully apply safety standards during certain tasks. However, this approach is sensitive and has a fine line between safety and accidents. Therefore, it is recommended to conduct continuous and dynamic risk assessments so that any emerging hazards are known to everyone (workers, safety officers, and management). Let us not forget that the primary principle in applying safety standards is "an absolute duty." Stay safe! This concept is derived from the Fire Protection Association FPA, with some modifications by me. #leadership #safety #risk #risk_assessement #workplace

🌍🚀 IAF/ISO Joint Communiqué: Climate Change Considerations in Management Systems Standards The publication of Climate Action Amendments to existing and new ISO Management Systems Standards (MSS) in alignment with ISO’s Climate Action commitments, are crucial for ensuring consistent introduction and implementation of climate change considerations across all standards. Climate change considerations are added to 31 existing management systems standards as an amendment to reflect ISO’s climate action commitments. Among those, few standards are ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO 50001, ISO 22000, ISO 22301, and ISO 27001 These amendments address the impact of climate change on achieving the intended results of the management system and are included in the Harmonized Structure (Appendix 2 of the Annex SL in the ISO/IEC Directives Part 1 Consolidated ISO Supplement). The amendments were officially published on February 23rd, 2024. 🔍 Key Changes added: • Understanding the Organization and Its Context (4.1):     Organizations must determine whether climate change is a relevant issue. • Understanding the Needs and Expectations of Interested Parties (4.2):     Organizations must consider if relevant interested parties have requirements related to climate change. This initiative from IAF/ISO reinforces the commitment of organizations to integrating climate action into their management systems standards, driving global sustainability efforts.
