    Concept of IS0 14000

    ISO 14000 is based on the concept that

    better environmental performance can be


    achieved when environmental aspects are
    systematically identified and managed.

    Why we need ISO 14000

    By using ISO 14000 standards, the


    international business community made an
    attempt to develop an international standard for
    Environmental management,
    Environmental protection,
    Reduction of environmental damage.

    Conti..

    Organizations use ISO 14000 as a way to enhance

    relationships with consumer groups, communities, and


    environmentally conscious investors
    by creating
    environmental friendly image.
    Improves relationships with stakeholders, like suppliers,

    buyers, and society.


    The standard requires companies to set their

    environmental policy and objectives themselves

    Components ISO 14000 Series

    ISO 14001

    ISO 14001 specifies the requirements for an

    environmental management system (EMS),


    by which an organization may be certified
    by a third party.
    It is a process for managing company

    activities that have an impact on the


    environment. It is not an environmental
    standard.

    Benefits ISO 14000


    Written procedures and instructions provides better control of
    an organization.
    1. Reduction of the number of sub-contractors and closer

    cooperation with the rest.


    2. Reduction of material use and lower

    energy consumption (Christensen and Rasmussen,


    1998).
    3. Managers and workers become aware of

    environmental aspects, regulations, and effects.

    Limitations

    Under ISO 14001 environmental information is gathered

    for the purposes of helping to track and to manage the


    corporate EMS, and is viewed as company-confidential.
    Companies have no obligation to provide information about

    the system to external audiences.

    Difference between ISO 14000 &


    9000
    ISO 9001 has QMS ISO 14001 deals with EMS.
    The first difference is in the policy and objectives of the
    systems.
    ISO 14001 is concerned with the outcome of an

    organizations activities and the commitment to comply with


    the legislation and other requirements from the authorities.
    ISO 9001 on the contrary has more of an administrative

    role and should ensure that products conform to specific


    requirements defined by customers.

    Continue

    ISO 9001, customers are the main stakeholders of interest.


    ISO 14001, there are many additional stakeholders

    Local communities,
    Regulatory bodies,
    Insurance companies,
    Environmental activist groups
