In this article, we focus on the ISO 14001:2015 Standard that delivers a framework for an Environmental Management System (EMS).
The ISO 14001:2015 Standard
The ISO 14001:2015 Standard delivers a framework on which an EMS can be developed and implemented for businesses of any size and operating in any industry. This EMS will comply with internationally agreed-upon best practices and regulations to ensure that your business can maximise its functionality and reap the rewards. It will also allow you to approach various business processes from an environmentally friendly angle and assess the impact that your business processes have on the immediate and surrounding environment. These elements have become pivotal for modern organisations and must not be ignored.
The Function of an EMS
The primary function of an EMS that is built on the ISO 14001:2015 Standard’s framework is to focus on the utilisation of an Environmental Lifecycle Approach – where every business-related activity and process is managed through an identification process of environmental aspects and impacts that are aligned to a risk methodology. This specific risk assessment measures the efficiency of current environmental controls (inherent risk) to determine whether these controls meet legal and strategic requirements. The EMS will adjust these controls accordingly to ensure compliance and efficiency for your business.
The Benefits of an EMS
The ISO 14001:2015 Standard is designed to deliver effective Environmental Management solutions and controls for organisations of any size and within any industry. The benefits of implementing an EMS include cleaner and more efficient energy usage and generation, creating an environmentally aware culture within your business, and ensuring that your business’s environmental impact is minimised as opposed to setting over into a potential crisis. When implementing an EMS that aligns with the ISO 14001:2015 Standard, your organisation can also seek ISO certification. WWISE provides ISO auditing toolkits for internal and external audits to help your business develop and prepare for audits.
