ISO 14001

Synergi makes sure you are ISO 14001 compliant. Synergi makes sure that the processes and steps listed below are documented and can be measured.

 The ISO 14001 2004 standard expects you to:

1.       Develop an environmental policy for your organization. Your policy should make it clear that your organization supports the establishment of an environmental management system. It should also make it clear that you are committed to protecting the environment and improving your organization’s environmental performance.

2.       Establish an environmental management system (EMS). An EMS is a network of interrelated elements. These elements  include responsibilities, authorities, relationships, functions, processes, practices, procedures, and resources.

3.       Identify the most significant aspects of your organization’s past, present, and future activities, products, and services. An environmental aspect is any feature or characteristic of an activity, product, or service that has or could have an impact on the environment.

4.       Clarify and respect the legal and other requirements that apply to your organization’s environmental aspects. ISO 14001 wants you to identify and meet these requirements.

5.       Set environmental objectives and targets for all relevant functions and levels within your organization. Your objectives and targets should address significant environmental aspects and be consistent with your environmental policy.

6.       Create programs to implement your environmental policy and achieve your environmental objectives and targets. Make sure  that your programs allocate responsibility for implementing your environmental policy and achieving your environmental objectives and targets.

7.       Evaluate your environmental management system in order to identify opportunities for improvement. ISO 14001 expects you to monitor, measure, audit, and review your EMS in order to identify corrective and preventive actions and to improve your overall environmental performance. It also expects you to make sure that your environmental policy is appropriate and being applied, and that your environmental objectives and targets are being achieved.
