Environmental management systems

ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management System standard has been adopted by organisations globally. 

The standard is designed to help organisations protect the physical environment around them whilst meeting their economic needs of today, and without damaging the ability of future generations to do the same.

The standard adopts a systematic approach to environmental management to achieve long-term sustainability.

The complexity of an organisation’s EMS depends on:

• the context and size of the organisation;
• the scope of the EMS;
• compliance obligations;
• the nature of works the organisation undertakes.
