- ISO14001 is a standard which allows organisations
to focus their environmental efforts against internationally accepted
criteria
- It requires an Environmental Policy to be
in existence within the organisation, fully supported by senior management
- The policy must be readily available to both
employees and the public
- The policy needs to clarify compliance with
Environmental Legislation that may affect the organisation and stresses
a commitment to continuous improvement
- The policy reflects the direction
of the Environmental Management System
- Periodic audits of the system
take place to ensure that it is effective in operation, is meeting
specified goals, and performs in accordance with relevant regulations
and standards
