Greystone’s Roadmap to ISO 14001 Certification:
What is ISO 14001?
ISO 14001 is an internationally recognized standard that provides a framework for Environmental Management Systems (EMS). It offers guidance on designing and implementing an EMS to effectively improve environmental performance. By achieving ISO 14001 certification, companies demonstrate their commitment to protecting the environment and adopting sustainable business practices.
Why is ISO 14001 important?
As we become more aware of environmental issues, it is more critical than ever for businesses to take an active role in protecting the environment. At Greystone, we are increasingly seeing stakeholders demand improved environmental performance. Earning ISO 14001 certification helps build trust with these stakeholders and strengthens our environmental credibility. Additionally, the ISO 14001 framework helps companies stay aligned with evolving compliance requirements.
What has Greystone learned from applying the standard?
This process has provided us with a comprehensive understanding of how to apply an EMS framework to Greystone’s operations. Additionally, we have developed the ability to identify Greystone’s environmental impacts. Our research on these impacts has also enabled us to discover local resources that can be utilized to mitigate them. Finally, this experience has strengthened our capacity to identify opportunities for environmental improvement.
