Explanation

A guide is typically a representative of the auditee assigned to assist the audit team, not to perform audit duties. ISO 19011:2018 Clause 5.4.7 states: "The responsibilities of guides include establishing contacts, arranging visits, ensuring safety, and facilitating communication -- but not evaluating or concluding audit findings." Drafting and communicating audit conclusions is the responsibility of the audit team leader under ISO/IEC 17021-1:2015 Clause 9.4.6.
