ISO 14001 Certification
Increased scrutiny of industry's effects on the environment has made compliance with ISO 14001 exceedingly important.
As we become increasingly aware of climate change and environmental degradation, many eyes are turned towards business, with demands for it to shoulder its responsibility for our environment. Environmental compliance is vital if your business is to be competitive today, and remain so tomorrow.
ISO 14001:2004, the international standard for Environmental Management Systems (EMS), will help your organization identify, and systematically reduce, any harmful effects it may have on the environment. By developing processes to lower energy and raw materials use, reduce waste and pollution, and mitigate the risk of emergency situations, your organization will not only be environmentally friendly - it will also be more profitable and efficient.
ISO 14001 is widely recognized as a "generic environmental management system standard" which can be applied to any organization, large or small, whatever its product or service. The standard provides guidance to the organization in order to:
- Minimize harmful effects on the environment caused by business activities; and
- Achieve continual improvement of environmental performance.
- Internationally recognized and accepted standard
- Formal accredited certificate giving confidence to customers and stakeholders
- Can be easily integrated with existing management systems
- Provision of skilled environmental auditors
- Consistency in audit methodology
