ISO14001 Environment

ISO14001 is the international standard for Environmental Management Systems (EMS). It provides a framework that organisations can follow to improve their environmental performance through more efficient use of resources and reduction of waste. This standard is applicable to any organization, regardless of size, type, or nature, seeking to manage its environmental responsibilities in a systematic manner.

CertCrowd Supports ISO14001 Compliance

Implementing and maintaining an effective ISO14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) can be tough. CertCrowd is designed to simplify the process to enhance your ISO14001 compliance journey. Our GRC software offers a complete set of tools to efficiently manage and uphold compliance.

Understanding the Scope

The first step to implementing your ISO14001 system is determining the scope of your system. The scope defines the boundaries and applicability of the system within the organisation, specifying which activities, locations and conditions are covered. A clearly defined scope ensures that the EMS efforts are targeting effectively, and that the organisation is addressing relevant risks and opportunities to reduce the organisation's impact on the environment.

Aspects and Impacts

A core component of compliance to ISO14001 is identifying the organisational aspects and impacts. Aspects refer to organisational activities, products, or services that can interact with the environment. Impacts, on the other hand, are the changes to the environment, such as air quality or water use, that result from these aspects. Understanding and managing aspects and impacts is crucial because it helps organisations identify how their operations affect the environment. By knowing this, organisations can take steps to reduce negative effects, like pollution or resource depletion, and improve their environmental performance.

CertCrowd, simplifies the process of managing the environmental aspects and impacts through our comprehensive Risks module. This comprehensive management ensures your organisation systematically addresses environmental impacts, fostering sustainable practices and continuous improvement.
