ISO 14001
ISO 14001 is an international standard that outlines how to effectively set up a successful environmental management system. ISO 14001:2015, published on September 15, 2015, is the current edition of the standard. The objective of the standard is for the organization to establish an organized approach to systematically reduce the environmental impact of the organization in areas under its control. This is especially important with growing and increasing customer demands for environmentally conscious businesses, and growing media coverage and legal consequences surrounding corporate responsibility and negligence. ISO 14001 is designed to promote company growth while diminishing environmental impact of this growth – your company remains successful commercially, without sacrificing the environment.
ISO 14001 exists to help organizations identify and control environmental impact, minimize negative effects that operations may have on the environment, and manage compliance with applicable laws and regulations. ISO 14001, like ISO 9001, pertains to the process; the methods by which a product or service is produced; rather than to the product or service itself.
ISO 14001 is maintained by ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and is administered by accredited management systems certification bodies like The Registrar Company.

- Establishing an environmental policy
- Determining environmental aspects and impacts of products, activities, and services
