2. What is an Environmental
Management System?
A systematic framework to manage the immediate and long term
environmental impacts of an organisation’s products, services and
processes
Allows an organisation to consistently control its significant impacts
on the environment, reduce the risk of pollution incidents, ensure
compliance with relevant environmental legislation and continually
improve its processes and operations
Basically a tool to improve environmental performance
3. What is ISO 14001?
ISO 14001 is an internationally accepted standard that defines the
requirements for establishing, implementing and operating an
Environmental Management System
The ISO14001:2004 standard provides the requirements for an EMS which
can be used for the independent certification and / or self-declaration of an
organisations management system
Emphasis on continual improvement of system
Based on the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) model
Can be integrated smoothly with Quality or Health & Safety Management

7. Implementation Tips
Start with a ‘gap analysis’ or Initial Environmental Review (IER)
Be honest about the drivers / motivations from outset
Get buy-in from staff at start – awareness raising session and continually
feedback
Work in teams / task groups
Appoint Environmental Review Committee – Management Rep;
Environmental Rep; EMS Auditor
Integrate with Health & Safety / Quality Management System if present
Realistic timescale – from 6-18 months to design, implement and submit
for accreditation
8. Key Elements 1 – Environmental Policy
Cornerstone & starting point of the EMS
Public declaration of commitment to improve
environmental performance & manage
environmental aspects
Revise as develop the EMS
9. Key Elements 1 – Environmental Policy
ISO 14001 Requirements:
Appropriate to nature, scale and environmental impacts of Company
Commitment to continual improvement & prevention of pollution
Commitment to comply with legislation
Framework for setting objectives and targets
Documented, implemented and maintained
Communicated to all staff
Available to members of the public
10. Key Elements 2 – Planning
Environmental Aspects & Impacts:
Need to identify and evaluate how business activities impact on the
environment
Definitions:
Environmental Aspect: “elements of company’s activities, products,
processes and services that can interact with the environment”
E.g. site run-off, spillage of oil, emissions from paint spraying, hazardous
and non-hazardous waste from production
Environmental Impact: “change or alteration in the environment as a
consequence of a particular environmental aspect”. Can be positive or
negative.
E.g. deterioration of air quality, low level ozone depletion, leachate
pollution from landfill sites
11. Key Elements 2 – Planning
Environmental Aspects & Impacts – Tips for Determining:
Brainstorming session – key staff
Flowcharts to map inputs and outputs for all products, services, processes
Consider all areas, e.g.:
• Product design • Material & waste storage
• Transport & distribution • Packaging
• Contracted operations • Product end life
• Office activities • Maintenance
Consider under ‘normal’, ‘abnormal’ and ‘emergency’ operating conditions

Best done in group environment to ensure objective and reproducible
Allocate scores for each environmental aspect according to following
categories:
• Legislation
• Interested Parties
• Environmental Severity
• Likelihood / Frequency
• Existing controls
Agree on cut-off score for significance e.g. above 15
15. Key Elements 2 – Planning
Legal & Other Requirements:
ISO 14001 requires you to identify and evaluate the legal and ‘other
requirements’ relevant to your company’s environmental aspects
‘Other Requirements’ e.g. industry codes of practice, pollution prevention
guidelines, agreements with public bodies
Any relevant requirements should be incorporated into the operational and
management controls of your EMS.
Legal Register needs to be kept up to date – every 3-6 months
16. Key Elements 2 – Planning
Legal & Other Requirements – Implementation Tips:
www.netregs.gov.uk – good on-line source with regular newsletter
Subscription services e.g. Croner’s Environmental Management
Contact your trade / industry organisation
Liaison with local regulators – Environment Agency, HSE, Local Council
Environmental Health Officer
17. Key Elements 2 – Planning
Objectives, Targets & Management Programmes:
Drive continual environmental improvement of the EMS
Should be simple, realistic, flexible and measurable
Refer back to Environmental Policy and significant environmental aspects
when setting
Prioritise and allocate resources – don’t try to achieve everything at once!
19. Key Elements 3 – Implementation & Operation
Procedures:
ISO 14001 requires you to establish effective procedures to both maintain
the EMS and control and minimise adverse environmental impacts
2 basic types:
• Systems Procedures – designed to ensure the EMS itself is fit for
purpose i.e. documented, implemented, maintained and continually
improved in accordance with the requirements of ISO 14001 e.g.
Document Control Procedure
• Operational procedures – designed to control environmental aspects
of day to day operations. Specific to each business, but some can be
common e.g. Emergency Response; Waste Management; Chemicals
Storage
20. Key Elements 4 – Checking
Monitoring & Measurement:
Fundamental to maintaining an ISO 14001 compliant EMS
Allows you to track performance in terms of meeting objectives and
targets; maintaining legislative compliance; achieving continual
environmental improvement
Examples:
• Monitoring particulate emissions from process stacks
• Maintaining monthly data on quantities waste sent for recycling
Activities governed by environmental permits or discharge consents will
require regular process monitoring
Monitoring equipment must be calibrated & maintained
21. Key Elements 4 – Checking
EMS Audits:
Essential to determine whether EMS is operating as it is designed to do so
i.e. in accordance with the commitments set out in the Environmental
Policy and in accordance with all of its procedures
Audits also ensure the EMS continually improves through the identification
and remediation of non-conformities
EMS audit schedule needs to include:
• System audits – audits of each element of the EMS
• Environmental Procedure audits – audits of each environmental
procedure for which specific controls have been formulated
• Regulatory Compliance audits – audits carried out to ensure
compliance with current legal requirements
22. Key Elements 4 – Checking
EMS Audits (Cont):
Frequency of EMS audits should depend on the nature of your operations;
the relative significance of your environmental aspects and the results of
previous audits
Aim to audit all parts of the EMS at least once a year
Important that auditors are trained in both general auditing techniques and
have an awareness of environmental management and associated
regulations
External consultants may be able to provide this service
Further guidance in ISO 19011:2002 – “Guidelines for quality and/or
environmental management systems auditing”
24. Key Elements 5 – Management Review
Management Review Meetings:
Typically held once or twice a year - frequency depends on the size /
complexity of your organisation and EMS
Regular reviews important to ensure:
• Continual improvement of the EMS
• EMS kept within budget
• EMS aligned with business priorities and needs
• Support of key management is maintained
25. Key Elements 5 – Management Review
Management Review – ISO 140001 requirements:
Inputs to Management Reviews should include:
• Results of internal audits
• Communications from interested parties (e.g. members of the public,
statutory agencies)
• Environmental performance of the company
• Extent to which objectives and targets have been met
• Status of corrective and preventive actions
• Follow-up actions from previous management reviews
• Changing business, environmental and operational circumstances
• Recommendations for improvement (e.g. from staff or auditors)
26. Independent Certification
Is it Necessary?:
Not really – significant company benefits accrue from actual
implementation of an EMS and adopting the principles of ISO 14001
However, many blue chip companies and public sector organisations now
require ISO 14001 certification before tendering stage
Certification means that an independent body has audited your EMS and
found it to be robust, effective and well maintained - which provides
stakeholders with high level of confidence
Decision depends on whether it will add value to your operations
27. Independent Certification
Route to Certification:
Commitment to Undertake initial
