ISO 14001: Environmental Management System

For putting an effective Environmental Management System (EMS) in place, ISO 14001 is an internationally accepted standard that sets out a framework of essential elements. The delicate balance between maintaining profitability and reducing environmental impact is addressed by the standard. Both objectives can be achieved with the commitment of your entire organization.

What’s in ISO 14001?

ISO 14001 covers general requirements, environmental policy, planning implementation and operation, checking and corrective action plus management review. This means you can identify aspects of your business that impact on the environment and understand those environmental laws that are relevant to your situation. The next step is to produce objectives for improvement and a management programme to achieve them, with regular reviews for continual improvement. We can then periodically assess the system and, if compliant, register your company or site to ISO 14001.
