Today’s customers are demanding more environmentally responsible products and services of their suppliers. To stay competitive, organizations are looking to build efficient Environmental Management Systems (EMS) to meet legislative requirements and exceed customers’ expectations. ISO 14001 is the global environmental quality standard geared to providing product or service companies the framework needed for implementing sound management systems. Its purpose is to help all types of organizations to protect the environment, to prevent pollution, and to be proactive regarding environmental performance.

The Strategy

ISO 14001 specifically covers the ISO 9001 requirements as well as the environmental requirements for businesses that handle chemicals and hazardous materials that have no significant environmental impact. An example would be of an electronic design and manufacturing house without any significant hazardous materials, but embrace paper-recycling programs, as well as utility cost reduction and pollution prevention systems.

What ISO 14001 Can Do For You

ISO14001 provides a proven framework for identifying and tracking regulatory compliance issues related to your business. It aids in risk and hazard identification, and establishes a system to manage them. Some of the benefits include:

  • Improved cost control
  • Increased energy and resource management
  • Safety awareness and incident reduction
  • Community involvement and recognition
  • Increased customer satisfaction (internal and external)
  • Enhanced image and consumer confidence
