Introduction

ISO 14001

ISO 14001 are among ISO's well known standards ever.

ISO 14001 helps organizations to implement environmental management.

Environmental management

ISO 14001 is for environmental management. This

means what the organization does to:

Minimize harmful effects on the environment caused by

its activities,

Conform to applicable regulatory requirements

Achieve continual improvement of its environmental

performance.

Generic standards

ISO 14001 is generic standards.

Generic means that the same standards can be applied: to any organization, large or small

in any sector of activity

whether it is a business enterprise, a public administration, or a government department.

Generic standards (cont.)

Generic also signifies that

no matter what the organization's scope of activity

if it wants to establish an environmental management

system, ISO 14001 gives the essential features.

Processes, not products

ISO 14001 concern the way an organization goes

about its work.

It is not product standards.

It is not service standards.

It is process standards.

It can be used by Product manufacturer

Processes, not products (cont.)

Processes affect final products or services.

ISO 14001 gives the requirements for what the

organization must do to manage processes

affecting the impact of its activities on the

environment.

Certification and registration

Certification is known in some countries as registration.

It means that an independent, external body has audited an organization's management system and verified that it conforms to the requirements specified in the standard

ISO does not carry out certification and does not issue or approve certificates,

Accreditation

Accreditation is like certification of the certification body.

It means the formal approval by a specialized body - an

accreditation body - that a certification body is competent to

carry ISO 14001:2004 certification in specified business

sectors.

Certificates issued by accredited certification bodies - and

known as accredited certificates - may be perceived on the

market as having increased credibility.

ISO does not carry out or approve accreditations.

Certification not a requirement

Certification is not a requirement of ISO 14001.

The organization can implement and benefit from

an ISO 14001 system without having it certified.

The organization can implement them for the

internal benefits without spending money on a

certification programme.

Certification is a business decision

Certification is a decision to be taken for business

reasons:

if it is a contractual, regulatory, or market requirement,

If it meets customer preferences

it is part of a risk management programme, or

if it will motivate staff by setting a clear goal.

ISO does not certify

ISO does not carry out ISO 14001 certification.

ISO does not issue certificates.

ISO does not accredit, approve or control the certification bodies.

ISO develops standards and guides to encourage good practice in accreditation and certification.

environmental management system.
