WHAT IS PLAN-DO-CHECK-ACT?
• It was in the 1960s when the environmental movement started to become popular, followed in
1972 by the first United Nations conference on the human environment in Stockholm. But it
wasn’t until 1992, during the Rio de Janeiro Earth Summit, when the United Nations reached
an agreement in order to protect the environment by reducing the negative impacts of business
activities. The same year, BSI group (British Standards Institution) published the world’s first
Environmental Management Systems standard – the BS 7750. It provided the basis for the
International Organization for Standardization to finally develop ISO 14001 – “Environmental
Management Systems – specification and guidance for use” in 1996.
• In 1996, the International Standards Organization set a progression of principles that made it
workable for organizations, governments, and associations to quantify and improve their natural
effect. It assisted with making an all inclusive standard that made it simpler to exchange across
outskirts without worries that singular guidelines were being abused.

.
◦ Ensure the organization has the personnel and resources needed to meet objectives
◦ Make managers responsible for the environmental performance of their unit
◦ Develop procedures for attaining objectives
◦ 5. Operational Control
◦ Establish a procedure to ensure the proper waste management hierarchy is followed
◦ Develop simple procedures to measure and report environmental impacts of processes and products
◦ Train staff whose roles affect meeting objectives, and make certain staff are capable of carrying out required duties
◦ Mandatory trainings include detailed pollution prevention methods
9. Document control
◦ For future evaluation, document steps taken to meet objectives.
◦ Use electronic documents to improve record management.

environment as well as public health.
◦ It has become expected for businesses to demonstrate that they are managing their organisation’s
