ISO 14001 environmental management system benefits
By developing an ISO 14001 environmental management
system organisations identify environmental risks and manage these risks
accordingly. There are many ways that organisations benefit such as:
Promoting a positive environmental image with customers, and increasing demand for products and services;
Lowering business costs through reduced resource consumption and waste disposal costs;
Improving environmental performance such as reducing electricity consumption and purchasing more 'sustainable' products;
Achieving environmental commitments and environmental policy requirements;
Meeting environmental legal requirements such as identifying a permit is required for certain discharges;
Retaining environmental knowledge through documenting ISO 14001 environmental management system requirements; and
Committing to social responsibilities.
ISO 14001 environmental management systems are the
most recognised systems. By choosing ISO 14001 organisations can be
easily recognised for their environmental management efforts.
