The Enviromental Management System Certification will guide your organisation towards the improvement of your environmental performance and resource management
What is ISO 14001?
ISO 14001 is an international standard which recognises the actions of responsible businesses in managing and controlling their environment. ISO 14001 Certification provides evidence that an Environmental Management System (EMS) is in place. It is designed to help businesses remain commercially successful without overlooking environmental responsibilities and impacts.
It can also help you to grow your business sustainably while reducing the environmental impact of this growth. Based on the Plan Do Check Act cycle, it can be used as a tool as well as focus on identifying, controlling and monitoring the environmental aspects of your organization and how to manage and improve the whole system.
Why is ISO 14001 important for your business?
Companies are now under pressure to make supply chains more environmentally friendly due to the growing global awareness of the environmental impact of consumer lifestyles. Organizations that implement ISO 14001 reduce costs and improve company-wide morale, while increasing the marketability of their brand. Furthermore they prove their organization is responsible and respectful towards the environment and society in general. Additionally certification may significantly reduce the risk of regulatory and environmental liability fines.
