ISO 14000 Series Standard


ISO 14000 is a series of environmental management
standards developed and published by the International
Organization for Standardization (ISO) for organisations.
The ISO 14000 family of standards provides practical tools
for companies and organizations of all kinds looking to
manage their environmental responsibilities.
The ISO 14000 standards are not designed to aid the
enforcement of environmental laws and do not regulate
the environmental activities of organizations. Adherence
to these standards is voluntary.

Applicability of ISO 14000


The whole ISO 14000 family of standards provides
management tools for organizations to manage their
environmental
aspects
and
assess
their
environmental performance.

these tools can provide significant tangible economic


benefits, including the following:a) Reduced raw material/resource use
b) Reduced energy consumption
c) Improved process efficiency
d) Reduced waste generation and disposal costs
e) Utilization of recoverable resources

Rationale for ISO 14000


Registration
a) Is a way of signalling to your buyers, customers, suppliers
and other stakeholders that you have implemented the
standard properly

b) provide assurance to company management and employees


as well as external stakeholders that environmental impact is
being measured and improved
c)

Encourage better environmental performance of suppliers by


integrating them into the organizations business systems

d) Demonstrate compliance with current and future statutory


and regulatory requirements
