I’m pretty confident it’s "contributory" negligence, but I wish I had reviewed more examples before the exam.

I feel like there was another term we studied that could fit, but "contributory" negligence seems to be the most common one.

I remember practicing a question about how an employee's actions can affect liability, and "contributory" was definitely mentioned there.

I think the answer might be "contributory" negligence, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the only term we discussed.

I'm a little confused by this question. Is it asking about the purpose of the testing or the specific metrics I'd be measuring? I'll need to read it over again to make sure I understand what they're looking for.

Curiosity makes the most sense to me. As an internal auditor, you need to be able to dig deeper and not just take things at face value, especially when there are potential issues. I feel confident that's the right answer.
