What are the requirements of ISO 14001 in Surrey?
The requirements of ISO 14001 are a series of protocols, controls, procedures, measures and auditing methods which help organisations to easily identify, monitor, manage, control, and improve their environmental performance.
ISO 14001 contains 10 clauses, the first 3 are terms and definitions, the scope of the standard and the standard’s references. These contain no requirements but rather help to provide a deeper understanding of the intent and terminology which will be used throughout.

- Clause 4 — Context of the company/organization
- Clause 5 — Leadership
- Clause 6 — Planning
- Clause 7 — Support
- Clause 8 — Operations
- Clause 9 — Performance Evaluation
