Third-Party Auditing
Third-party auditing
A management tool comprising a systematic, documented, periodic and objective evaluation of by an independent third party on how well an organisation is performing with the aim of achieve more sustainable practices. This includes a range of self assessment programs by which your property could be certified following a desktop audit conducted by the certifying organisation. For example the AAA Tourism, Green STAR Accreditation program has a self complete checklist that once audited by AAA Tourism, your property is awarded a Green STAR. An Assessor then conducts a Green STAR audit at the time of your cyclical STAR Rating assessment applying standards linked to the Green Globe certification scheme established by the Sustainable Tourism Cooperative Research Centre.
