ISO 14001 Certification | Environmental Management System

ISO 14001:2015 specifies the requirements for an environmental management system that an organization can use to enhance its environmental performance. ISO 14001:2015 is intended for use by an organization seeking to manage its environmental responsibilities in a systematic manner that contributes to the environmental pillar of sustainability.

ISO 14001:2015 helps an organization achieve the intended outcomes of its environmental management system, which provide value for the environment, the organization itself and interested parties. Consistent with the organization’s environmental policy, the intended outcomes of an environmental management system include:

  • Enhancement of environmental performance;
  • Fulfilment of compliance obligations;
  • Achievement of environmental objectives.

ISO 14001:2015 is applicable to any organization, regardless of size, type and nature, and applies to the environmental aspects of its activities, products and services that the organization determines it can either control or influence considering a life cycle perspective. ISO 14001:2015 does not state specific environmental performance criteria.

ISO 14001:2015 can be used in whole or in part to systematically improve environmental management. Claims of conformity to ISO 14001:2015, however, are not acceptable unless all its requirements are incorporated into an organization’s environmental management system and fulfilled without exclusion.

THE EIGHT BENEFITS OF A CERTIFIED ISO 14001 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

As an organization, you can always choose to work in accordance with the ISO 14001standard, but you can also choose to be certified by an independent party (such as a certification body). In practice, we see eight major benefits in choosing a certifiedISO 14001 Environmental management system:

  1. You have objective proof that your organisation attaches great importance to Environmental management system and that you have it checked regularly by an independent party. This commitment increases confidence in your organisation.
  2. You achieve higher operating efficiency. Organisations that consider quality management to be an integral part of their business operations usually achieve a higher operating efficiency than those that do not.
  3. A certified ISO 14001 Environmental management system increases the quality of your services and raises your staff’s awareness.
  4. A certified ISO 14001 Environmental management system ensures clear processes and (communication) structures, tasks and responsibilities throughout the entire organisation. This increases the involvement of your staff, which improves the working atmosphere and reduces the pressure of work.
  5. You can detect and identify problems in good time, which means that you can quickly take steps to avoid the same mistakes in the future.
  6. You make it clear to your staff, your partners, your clients and the outside world that customer satisfaction is at the core of your business.
  7. A certified ISO 14001 Environmental management system gives you a positive company image, raising you up to the level of your competitors or perhaps even a level higher.
  8. It is possibly also in your commercial interest, seeing that more and more clients demand that their suppliers work in accordance with a certified ISO 14001 Environmental management system.
