ISO 14001
The environmental management system criteria are provided by the ISO 14001 standard. This standard does not determine the environmental performance requirements, but provides a framework so that a company or organization can set up an efficient environmental management system. It can be used by any organization, large or small, regardless of its field of activity. The application of this standard gives the management of the business, its staff, and external shareholders the confidence that the environmental effects have been assessed and improved.

Advantages of the new version of ISO 14001:

The most recent form of environmental management is more thoroughly integrated and consistent with the business plan of your corporation. Strategic focus improves the performance of your environmental management system and leads to greater sustainability, saves you money, and helps you preserve natural resources for future generations.
2. Management
More management team involvement in the management system will inspire all employees to support the goals and principles of the business.
3. Environmental performance improvement
Organizations will take action to protect the environment and enhance their environmental performance. Good environmental management reduces the risk of law violation and often identifies opportunities to save costs.
