WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF AN ISO 14001 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM?
- Improved environmental management. An ISO 14001-conforming environmental management system helps you identify potential environmental impacts and implement controls and measures to prevent and reduce pollution.
- Demonstrate compliance. Identify how statutory and regulatory requirements impact your organisation and keep track of changes. Because it is based on a set of industry-recognised best practices, ISO 14001 certification also positions you to meet the regulatory challenges of the future.
- Improved company reputation and the confidence of stakeholders through strategic communication
- Reduced operating costs. Achieving efficiencies in energy and water usage and through waste minimisation means money saved.
- Improved stakeholder relationships. Make the environment a priority and people will respond positively to your organisation. ISO 14001 certification is recognised around the world. If you are attempting to expand your business into new territories, certification is the best way to demonstrate to potential customers that you’re taking proactive steps to do the responsible thing.
