ISO 14001 - Environmental Management System (EMS) developmentISO 14001 - Environmental Management System (EMS) development


More and more people are becoming increasingly environment conscious, due to in part the apocalyptic projections of the consequences of climate change. The current paradigm of the world is geared towards conservation of nature and to reduce the harmful effects of pollution, and in such a world, organisations that still produce excessive amount of pollutants will not survive or will be ostracised. The ISO 14001 is specifically created so that organisations can install checks within themselves while not compromising production efficiency.

What is an ISO 14001 Environmental Management System?

The ISO 14001 is a standard developed by the International Organisation for Standardization so as to give corporations and other organisations a system - the Environmental Management System - that will enable them to produce their commodities and dispense of their services without harming the environment in the process. What the ISO 14001 EMS does is that it will create a framework that is adhering to the several demands of the customers to be more eco-friendly and meet the legal and regulatory requirements all the while producing grade quality products.

An ISO 14001 Certification is one that will require the organisation to implement a series of measures that will bring about change in its core processes. All the processes that have a direct impact on the environment, such as the manufacturing and service delivery, will come under its purview as well as some unregulated activities.
