WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF ISO 14001 CERTIFICATION?

 


It is said, the way we treat our environment in the present becomes the basis for the way the environment treats us in the future. Looking at the adverse condition of the environment, from melting glaciers to shrinking biodiversity, it can be said that the future doesn’t look so bright for us. Especially since the advent of industrialization, the global temperature has been on an accelerated rise. This has caused the extinction of many species, increased the adversities of natural hazards, and made us more vulnerable to diseases. However, in the recent past, there has been rising concern over environmental issues all over the world. The UN’s resolutions on many COP meetings aim at curbing the effects of deteriorating environment as well as encouraging such practices that may help in improving it. This has led many countries to come up with more stringent environmental legislations.

The need for ISO 14001 certification

In this background, it has become all -the-more important for the organizations to deploy certain processes that leave minimal impact on the environment. The International Organization for Standardization publishes ISO 14001 certification that gives a framework for establishing an Environmental management System (EMS) in your organization. Aligning your processes according to the requirement of this certification enables you to define your processes according to their environmental-friendliness and generate awareness among your staff, clients, and contractors regarding environmental issues.

The cost-effectiveness of ISO 14001 certification

Implementing ISO 14001 in your organization might seem a tedious and costly exercise. But, in reality, it is a true Return on Investment (RoI). ISO 14001 certification follows the same High-Level Structure as ISO 9001 certification and ISO 45001 certification, which makes integration of different management systems quite easy. With proper Risk assessment, the organizations can undertake such actions that would prevent those risks and save your valuable time and money in averting it. Since ISO 14001 certification acts as a proof of your commitment towards environmentally responsible actions, it helps you in gaining lower insurance premiums. 

ISO 14001 as a proof of compliance

With ISO 14001 certification, you can prove your compliance to any regulations pertaining to the environment. This also gives a great boost to your image in the market for being sincere towards environmental issues.
