ISO 14001 Certification for Environmental Management Systems (EMS)

ISO 14001 is the most recognized standard for environmental management as it helps businesses to effectively control the environmental impacts of their different processes, from procurement and storage to product development and distribution.

Whether businesses are developing or modifying their existing environmental management systems for the ISO 140001 certification, standard implementation will help them achieve regulatory compliances and ensure their operations are environmentally sustainable.

The objective of ISO 14001 is to specify requirements for an Environmental Management System (EMS) and enable the development and implementation of policy and objectives that will consider legal and other requirements that need to be met and information about significant environmental aspects.

ISO 14001 applies to environmental aspects that are identified as controllable and able to be influenced. It does not state specific environmental performance criteria.

ISO 14001 is based on the methodology known as Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA). PDCA can be briefly described as follows:

Plan: Establish the objectives and processes necessary to deliver results in accordance with the organisation’s environmental policy.

Do: Implement the processes.

Check: Monitor and measure processes against environmental policy, objectives, targets, legal, and other requirements, and report the results.

Act: Take actions to continually improve the performance of the EMS.

ISO 14001 is the most internationally recognized environmental management system standard. While securing the certification by implementing a compliant EMS can be a daunting process, expert ISO 14001 certification consultants can help you in every way. They can provide full assistance, guidance, and training for the EMS implementation as well as certification. They will take the lead in analysing the gaps of your current environmental framework and identifying the actions required to transition it to the ISO 14001 EMS. They can also help you to perform an internal audit for your EMS. Once the EMS gets successfully established, they provide a team of auditors who thoroughly evaluate the EMS to check for any nonconformity issues. Hence, their auditing service provides you with a scope to improve the EMS and assure its ISO 14001 compliance.
