ISO Standards
The ISO (International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation founded in 1947 to promote the development of international manufacturing, trade and communication standards.
There are two types of standards:
specification and guidance. In the
14000 series of standards, ISO 14001
is the only specification standard.
The rest are considered
guidance standards.
A specification standard “contains only those requirements that may be objectively audited for certification purposes.” A guidance standard “provides guidance on the development and implementation of environmental management systems (EMS) and principles, and their coordination with other
management systems.” Businesses are not
certified to ISO 14000 as a series. They
are certified to ISO 14001, the standard
that specifies the requirements
for an EMS.
ISO 14001 was first published in 1996. It specifies requirements for establishing an environmental policy, determining environmental aspects and impacts of products/activities/services, planning
environmental objectives and measurable
targets, implementation and operation
of programs to meet objectives
and targets, checking and
corrective action, and management
review.
