ISO
14000 is a series of international standards
that deal with environmental issues. An environmental
management system, as defined in ISO 14001,
is the part of an organization's overall management
system pertaining to the development, implementation,
achievement, review, and maintenance of the
organization's environmental policy.
For many industries, environmental concerns
are at the forefront of corporate issues today.
Having a documented environmental management
system ensures that your policies are effectively
understood and implemented, and that your environmental
management system is an integral part of your
overall management system.
