ISO 14001
EMS- Environmental Management System
ISO 14001 helps organizations to implement environmental management & is linked to sustainability.
ISO 14001 focuses on managing your organization's impact on the external environment, to reduce pollution & comply with regulations & legislation.
It is an internationally agreed standard that sets out the requirements for an EMS [environmental management system].
It helps organizations improve their environmental performance through more efficient use of resources & reduction of waste, gaining a competitive advantage & the trust of stakeholders whilst helping to save the planet.
It follows closely the UN sustainable Global goals [see image at bottom].
ISO 14001 & sustainability also involves getting a 'green office'.
Start2Act
is for SME's & start-up's, supported by the Carbon Trust & EU [until 2020].
It is a useful free e-learning tool for employees.
A good first step on the road to ISO14001 which will help ensure a green, sustainable business.
