ISO is the world largest standards developing organization.
Between 1947 and the present day,
`
ISO has published more than 18,500 InternationalStandards,
ranging from standards for activities such as agriculture
engineering, and to construction, medical through to mechanical the
newest
devices,
information technology developments.3

An Environmental Management System (EMS) based on the ISO 14000
standards is a management tool
enabling an organization of any size or type of control the
impact of its activities, product or service on the
environment.

`
`
`
The ISO 14000 family includes most notably the ISO 14001
standard, Other standards included in this series are ISO 14004,
which gives additional guidelines for a good environmental
management system. An EMS is defined by ISO as: part of the overall
management system, that includes organizational structure, planning
activities, responsibilities, practices, procedures, processes and
resources for developing, implementing, achieving and maintaining
the environmental policy.

Expansion:
More and more business areas get
covered by the implemented EMS. Enrichment:
More and more activities, products,
processes, emissions, resources etc. get managed by the
implemented EMS. An
improvement of the structural and organizational
framework of the EMS,9
`
`
`
`
However, ISO 9001 (quality) and ISO 14001 (environment) are
"generic management system standards". "Generic" means that the
same standard can be applied to any organization, large or small,
whatever its product or service, in any sector of activity, ISO
9001 contains a generic set of requirements for implementing a
quality management system. ISO 14001 for an environmental
management system.
10
`
Make the EMS "system" dependent and not "person" dependent.
` ` ` ` ` `
Maintain good public relations. Satisfy investor criteria and
improve access to capital. Obtain insurance at reasonable cost.
Enhance image and market share. Meet clients' registration
requirements. Improve cost control.
11
` ` ` ` ` ` `
Demonstrate reasonable care. Reduce consumption of materials and
energy. Obtain permits and authorizations. Reduce the cost of
complying with environmental regulations. Develop and share
environmental solutions. Improve industry-government relations.
Reduce incidents that result in liability.

Certification and registration is one of the most effective ways
to provide an objective evidence. Today, the choice is yours.
Tomorrow, the choice may not be available. No matter what your
position may be, it is a safe conclusion that every firm will
benefit from learning about ISO 14000.
