ISO 14001ISO 14001
ISO 14001 is an internationally accepted standard that sets out how you can go about putting in place an effective Environmental Management
System (EMS). The standard is designed to address the delicate balance between
maintaining profitability and reducing environmental impact; with the commitment of your entire organization, it can enable you to achieve both
objectives.
![Page 14: Bucuti & Tara Beach Resorts Environmental presentation 2010](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022110315/55ce5b68bb61ebff0a8b4622/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
BENEFITS OF ISO 14001BENEFITS OF ISO 14001Certifying your company's environmental management system to ISO
14001 means that a third party has assessed that it meets the requirements set out in the standard.
Certification to ISO 14001 allows you to:
• Demonstrate a commitment to achieving legal and regulatory compliance to regulators and government • Demonstrate your environmental commitment to stakeholders • Demonstrate an innovative and forward thinking approach to customers and prospective employees • Increase your access to new customers and business partners • Better manage your environmental risks, now and in the future • Potentially reduce public liability insurance costs • Enhance your reputation

For particular industries, pressure is now being exerted by many large organizations, such as original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) who
expect their suppliers to adopt environmentally-friendly practices and may mandate ISO 14001 certification as a license to operate.

Chemicals & hazardous materials
Cleaning products can be among the most hazardous chemicals in your home or office. These products create hazardous waste – threatening human health and the natural environment.
Borax, ammonia and baking soda are safe alternatives that can clean and disinfect to meet
hospital standards and are much cheaper than name brand cleaners.
There are many green products available that are just as effective as traditional ones.
