Why all business owners and employers should implement an Environmental Management System (EMS) (ISO 14001:2015) today

More and more customers are asking for environmental credentials as part of their supplier approval process. Requests may be made in tender applications or supplier questionnaires. Customers questions can range from 'does your business have an environmental policy?' through to 'is your business ISO 14001 certified?'

There are a number of advantages to having an Environmental Management System (EMS). From a corporate social responsibility standpoint, it demonstrates that a business is committed to reducing its carbon footprint.

Government bodies and multinational companies are often inclined to select a contractor/supplier based on evidence of a well maintained EMS, as it demonstrates effective risk management and due diligence.

A well designed EMS also helps businesses avoid costly environmental impacts through established protocols derived from operational assessments (environmental aspects) and consideration of regulatory frameworks.

The identification of a business’s most significant environmental impacts also creates opportunities to operate more efficiently. Such opportunities may include cost reducing waste management and energy consumption strategies, translating to increased profits and a competitive advantage over other contractors/suppliers in the market. A well maintained EMS formalises environmental performance and ultimately assists business’s in the achievement of financial objectives / targets.
