Environment Management System (EMS) is a tool for managing the impacts of an organisation's activities on the environment. It provides a structured approach to planning and implementing environment protection measures. EMS monitors environmental performance of an organisation. It integrates environmental management into a company's daily operations, long term planning and other quality management systems.

 

ISO 14001 is a standard for Environment Management System which is an internationally accepted standard that sets out how one can go about putting in place an effective Environmental Management System. The standard is designed to address the balance between maintaining profitability and reducing environmental impact. ISO 14001 consists of general requirements, environmental policy, planning implementation and operation, checking and corrective action, management review. This means one can identify aspects of the business that impact on the environment and understand those environmental laws that are relevant to the situation. The next step is to produce objectives for improvement and a management programme to achieve them, with regular reviews for continual improvement.

 

Environmental impact is becoming an increasingly important issue across the globe, with pressure to minimize that impact coming from a number of sources like local and national governments, regulators, trade associations, customers, employees and shareholders. Social pressures are also building up from the growing array of interested parties, such as consumer, environmental and non governmental organizations (NGOs), academia and neighbours.

  

An EMS can be a powerful tool for organisations to both improve their environmental performance, and enhance their business efficiency. It requires organisations to take an active role in examining their practices, and then determining how their impacts should best be managed. This approach encourages creative and relevant solutions from the organisation itself. The organisations can use EMS to ensure that their performance is within regulatory requirements, and to keep ahead of more stringent regulations which might be introduced in the future.
