WHAT IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM?

5/14/2020

0 Comments

 
ISO 14001 is an Environmental Management System (EMS) which provides a structure for measuring and improving an organisation’s environmental impact. 

The world has only until 2030 to stem catastrophic climate change - but can companies be part of the solution? And, if so, how?

What is not in doubt is that environmental issues are growing in prominence: energy efficiency, environmental compliance, environmental impact, and carbon footprint are widely discussed. ​

​The areas you'll need to look at - which we can help you with - would be:
​
  • Developing an environmental policy
  • Risk assessing your processes and identifying environmental aspects and impacts, and significant environmental impacts that the organisation may cause
  • Identifying environmental compliance requirements
  • Creating and maintaining a Legal and Other Register to show that you are monitoring and complying with current environmental legislation and regulation changes
  • Developing objectives and targets, and their environmental management programmes 
  • Defining resources, roles, and responsibilities for environmental management
  • Developing competence, training and awareness procedures
  • Creating communication processes to all stakeholders and interested parties
  • Developing of operational control processes
  • Developing of emergency preparedness and response procedures
  • Developing processes to monitor and measure operations that can have significant impact to the environment
  • Developing processes for management review by senior management

ISO 14001 enables companies to put in place an effective environmental management system and is designed to address the balance between a company’s environmental impacts while maintaining profitability.

You also join in the fight against climate change. Being ISO 14001 certified proves to stakeholders, customers, suppliers etc. that you are environmentally credible. We help you navigate your own services and operations.
