What is ISO 14001?

ISO 14001 is the international standard for Environmental Management Systems (EMS). The standard is designed to apply to organisations of every size, type, industry and scope, providing the crucial framework needed to implement and maintain an effective EMS that better protects the environment whilst meeting the economic needs of the business.

ISO 14001 helps organisations to improve their environmental performance with guidance on things such as product development, manufacturing, distribution, storage and business procurement and how they can be improved to reduce their impact on the environment. It also encourages organisations to look at how they manage their emergency response, stakeholders, customer expectations and relationships with the local community.

For some businesses, ISO 14001 may not require a lot of changes beyond documenting what they are doing but for some it can mean implementing a number of changes that work to make the businesses more efficient, reduce waste, increase revenue and achieve compliance.

What are the requirements of ISO 14001?

ISO 14001 requires documented evidence that the Environmental Management System (EMS) meets the required standard to ensure that the robust processes set out are in place. These requirements were designed to be applicable to organisations of every size, type, location, or level of maturity.

The requirements of ISO 14001:2015 are broadly separated into 10 sections or ‘clauses’. Clauses 1-3 don’t contain any requirements but describe the scope of the standard, normative references and terms and definitions used in the standard so that it can be better understood.

Clauses 4-10 contain requirements for an EMS and include;

4 – Context of the organization
5 – Leadership
6 – Planning
7 – Support
8 – Operation
9 – Performance evaluation
10 – Improvement
