Organizations around the world, as well as their stakeholders, are becoming increasingly aware of the need for environmental management systems, socially responsible behavior, and sustainable growth and development.
International Standard Series ISO 14000 is rapidly becoming the chosen method for organizations to work towards common and comparable environmental management system (EMS) practices to support the sustainability of their business, products, and services.
More pressure is coming from governments and regulatory bodies to use a framework like ISO 14001 to ensure alignment and consistency both nationally and internationally.
With the new ISO 14001 Standard comes the emphasis on proactive management of environmental aspects, enterprise risk, corporate governance, and sound operational and financial practices and performance.
