Environmental
Management
The pressure to meet stringent environmental
requirements placed upon companies has never been greater. As consumers
move their focus towards sustainability rather than purely price,
Industry must respond by decreasing its environmental impacts and
improving its use of raw materials and recycling.
Sound environmental management relates to identification of potential
impacts, management of these issues and measurement of the success
of your management programs. The internationally recognised ISO
14001 series of Standards is a good starting point to assist companies
to identify the areas within their operations where they can improve
their environmental performance.
The ISO 14001 Standard is not designed to tell
you how to manage your business; rather it is a tool you can use
to improve the efficiency of your business systems and environmental
performance.
How will your business benefit from certification
to this Standard?
- Certification to an internationally recognised
third party Standard such as ISO14001 is increasingly becoming
a condition of contract within Industry. More and more companies
require suppliers to have this certification to demonstrate strong
environmental management within their operations.
- The ISO 14001 system can be utilised within your business
to improve efficiency and reduce costs by standardizing processes
and procedures saving your staff time and your business money.
- Management systems certification can be used
as a competitive advantage particularly in the
tender process, leading to increased tender
success and increased business opportunities.
ISO 14001 is widely recognised as a minimum
requirement for exporters and Defence contractors.
Combined Certification
It is becoming increasingly more difficult to comply with the
ever expanding requirement for companies to maximize their product
quality, whilst minimising their environmental footprint as well
as working safer to protect their employees.
To overcome these issues, QCS(E) offers an Integrated Systems
Program (ISP). This program allows your company to meet the requirements
of the combined Quality, Environment and Occupational Health and
Safety related issues seen as critical by your customers.
QCS(E) uses auditors who hold accreditation to all three programs
to conduct the ISP audits. This significantly reduces your audit
cost because one auditor does all the work rather than using three
separate auditors. It also allows your staff to develop a strong
working relationship with a single individual leading to enhanced
service provision and increased benefits for your company.
