ISO Consultant Colin says…
Why would my business want approval against this standard ?
This standard is almost mandatory if you want to sell into government or local government based organisations. Many organisations now have environmental improvement targets in place. These targets can include the performance of their suppliers and sub-contractors. Hence your customer may be reliant on you gaining certification and improving your environmental impact.
Most environmental good practice is now backed by legislation, so if you aren’t compliant you risk being fined as indicated above. An ISO 14001 based environmental management system should put the controls in place to make sure this doesn’t happen, and ensure that your systems stay up to date with the latest legislation.
How long would it take to become approved ?
That depends on the activities completed in your business, and whether you are already complying with legislation. However, ISO Consultants can usually produce an Environmental Management System written around your business, audit it’s implementation to make sure it is compliant with ISO 14001 and get it through a UKAS approved certification with 8 days of our assistance. Implementation is usually most successful when completed over 6-8 weeks.
What must I need to do ?
In short, identify the areas of your activities which have a significant environmental impact and develop appropriate controls to reduce that impact. This tends to have three general areas of focus :
Waste. The removal of waste needs to follow strict guidelines and be well controlled.
Pollution. The aspects of your activities which may cause pollution needs to be identified and controls developed
Energy. Use needs to be under controlled and reduced where possible/feasible.
What is this likely to cost ?
Our fees are based on a day rate. The number of days are based on your activities, but are typically 6-8 days for a small business.
Certification by a UKAS approved body is likely to cost £ 4-5000 for a three year certificate.
Good management systems are always written around the unique nature of your business, so we will embrace and formalise your current best practice, as well as ensuring compliance in key areas that hold legal implications.
