3. ISO 14000 ISO 14000 INTRODUCTION In the present day, environmental matter is not limited only in one country or specific area. The environmental impact effects everywhere and leads to problem all over the world. Environmental conservation has become so complicated that it causes pressure to all business organizations. The International Organization for Standardization had led to the development of the International Standard for environmental management system series (ISO 14000).

4. ISO 14000 INTRODUCTION ISO 14000 After the success of the ISO9000 series of quality standards in 1987, the International Standards Organization is nearing completion and publication of a comprehensive set of standards for environmental management. This series of standards is designed to cover the whole area of environmental issues for organizations in the global marketplace.

5. Continues.. The structure of the standards is as follows: Environmental Management Systems (EMS) Environmental Auditing and Related Environmental Investigations (EA) Environmental Labeling (EL) Environmental Performance Evaluation (EPE) Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Terms and Definitions (T&D) ISO 14000 Series is the set of standards relating to environmental management system. Generally, the standard used for certification is ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems - Specifications with Guidance for Use. ISO 14000

6. ISO 14000 SERIES The ISO 14000 series is a set of standards concerning EMS including the activities of designing, producing, delivering and servicing. The concept of the standard is to enable the organization to continually develop and improve its EMS. Although the series comprises of many standards, the standard ISO 14001 is used as the direction for EMS certification. ISO 14000

7. WHO SHOULD IMPLEMENT ISO 14000 Any organization: manufacturers and service organizations. Any activities of each organization may cause the environmental aspects and impacts such as noise, dust, waste, contaminants in manufacturing process and ineffectively resources consumption in servicing. These can be minimized by implementing EMS. Although each country has already had her own environmental regulations, organizations are able to apply ISO 14000 series effectively within their system on voluntary basis and the benefit obtained is not only for organizations themselves but their society also. ISO 14000

8. WHAT IS ISO 14000? ISO 14000 is a series of voluntary international standards pertaining to environmental issues. They are designed to reduce the environmental effects from all aspects of business activities. It is believed that higher efficiency would be realized and "the cost of doing business" would also be reduced , by minimizing business exposure to environmental issues. ISO 14000

9. What is not ISO 14000 Is not a PRODUCT and PERFORMANCE standard. Does not establish levels of pollutants or performance . Does not establish test standards. Does not involve initial performance testing. Does not requires or establish final performance goal. Does not require the meeting of zero emissions . Does not mandate best practice technology . Does not require disclosure of performance levels . Does not require disclosure of audit results . ISO 14000

10. HISTORY OF ISO 14000 The reasons for developing these national standards stemmed from the European success terms of the ISO 9000 Quality Management Standards, and from the "green movement" in Europe. These standards were envisioned to provide a market-driven, competitive attitude in business. ISO 14000, which is an evolution of ISO 9000 standards, is designed to address process improvements in these environmental areas by way of energy audits, hazardous materials management, and other techniques ISO 14000

11. ISO 14000 holds great promise for reduced waste and higher material quality because it emphasizes the elimination of waste early in the procurement process, especially in industries such as coatings where there are significant amounts of raw material input. ISO 14000 identifies and eliminates all waste that enters production through current procurement practices before it enters the manufacturing environment. ISO 14000

12. When ISO 9000 quality management systems are integrated with ISO 14000 environmental systems, the two processes support each other. Opportunities for better quality practices exist in the quest for better environmental practices, and better environmental processes are often the result of improved quality. A merged system, which is currently available, is often the answer for companies seeking improvement in both areas. ISO 14000

13. Historically, document disarray and communication redundancies have made implementation of ISO 9000 and ISO 14000 slow and costly. . The advent of new Web-based technologies, however, makes it possible for companies to host entire documentation, project management, and training systems for the implementation of ISO 9000 and ISO 14000 standards, significantly reducing the cost of each individual component and minimizing the time to implementation. ISO 14000

14. ISO 14000 SERIES Organizational evaluation standards are operational and effective because, the focus was on the process rather than the product. The development and acceptance of product evaluation standards will be much more difficult. ISO 14000 Organizational Evaluation Standards Product Evaluation Standards

15. ISO 14000 The structure of the standards is as follows: Environmental Management Systems (EMS) Environmental Auditing and Related Environmental Investigations (EA) Environmental Labeling (EL) Environmental Performance Evaluation (EPE) Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Terms and Definitions (T&D)

ISO 14000

44. EMS A continual cycle of planning, implementing, reviewing and improving the actions that an organization takes to meet its environmental obligations. ISO 14000

45. Serves as a tool to improve environmental performance  Provides a systematic way of managing an organization’s environmental affairs Is the aspect of the organization’s overall management structure that addresses immediate and long-term impacts of its products, services and processes on the environment  Gives order and consistency for organizations to address environmental concerns through the allocation of resources, assignment of responsibility and ongoing evaluation of practices, procedures and processes  Focuses on continual improvement of the system Environmental Management System ISO 14000

46. An EMS follows a Plan-Do-Check-Act Cycle, or PDCA. The diagram shows the process of first developing an environmental policy, planning the EMS, and then implementing it. The process also includes checking the system and acting on it. The model is continuous because an EMS is a process of continual improvement in which an organization is constantly reviewing and revising the system. This is a model that can be used by a wide range of organizations — from manufacturing facilities to service industries and government agencies Environmental Management System ISO 14000

47. ISO 14000

48. 1. Environmental policy Initially, the organization’s top management should have commitment and define the policy on EMS which is used for the direction of implementing and improving its EMS. 2. Planning In order to achieve environmental policy, at least, the organization should : Identify the environmental aspects of its activities and specify those which have significant impacts on the environment. Identify legal and other requirements to which the organization involved. Establish objectives and targets of its activities having impacts to environment. Establish environmental programs for achieving its objectives and targets. Environmental management system model ISO 14000

49. 3. Implementation In order to achieve environmental planning, at least, the organization should : Define roles, responsibilities and authorities for facilitating EMS effectively. Communicate to the staffs at each level for the importance of conformance to the environmental policy; provide appropriate training to personnel performing the tasks to gain their knowledge and competence. Establish and control documentation relating to EMS. Control operations and activities to meet the specified objectives and targets. Identify potential accidents and emergency situations for preventing and mitigating the environmental impacts that may be associated with them and periodically test such procedures where practicable. ISO 14000

50. 4. Checking and corrective action To ensure that the organization is performing in accordance with the stated EMS programmes, at least, the organization should: Monitor and measure its operations and activities against the organization’s plans. Identify non-conformance and take action to mitigate any impact caused. Record the on-going activities of the EMS. Conduct periodic EMS audits. 5. Management review The organization’s top management should review and continually improve its EMS, with the objective of improving its overall environmental performance. ISO 14000

51. Environmental management system model

52. ISO 14000 Concepts The basic concept underlying the ISO 14000 series is that in order to consistently meet environmental performance expectations, an organization must implement and maintain an effective environmental management system. While the system cannot guarantee that environmental incidents will never occur, --it is intended to minimize the likelihood and severity of their occurrence -- it can guarantee that when they occur, there is a mechanism in place to investigate the causes and to take corrective and preventive action.                                  ISO 14000

53. Key EMS concepts Continual improvement - It is to note that an effective EMS doesn’t just happen. An effective EMS needs ongoing management support. This endorses the concept of continual improvement. - The concept of continual improvement recognizes that problems will occur, but a committed organization learns from its mistakes and prevents similar problems from occurring in the future. - ISO 14000 Continuous improvement model begins with top mgmt’s commitment to corporate governance by a set of overarching principle’s including: Environmental protection as one of the highest corporate priorities with clear assignment of responsibilities and accountabilities to all employees. ISO 14000

54. Compliance with all environmental laws and regulations applicable to the organization’s activities, products and services. Ongoing communication on environmental commitment and performance with all stakeholders. Strategic planning that sets forth environmental performance objectives and targets, implemented through a disciplined mgmt process. Periodic performance measurement, as well as systems audits and mgmt reviews, to achieve continual improvement wherever possible. Employee involvement - Getting employee involvement in designing and implementing the EMS demonstrates the organization’s commitment to the environment. So to build and achieve an effective EMS mgmt should communicate the importance of: Conviction and commitment towards effective environmental mgmt for organization’s survival. Building environmental mgmt in all aspects of orgznal oprns-product and process development. Addressing environmental problems as opportunities. ISO 14000

55. Flexibility - Dynamicity in EMS will : 1. Allow the organization to adapt to rapidly changing business environment 2. Help making the formulated EMS understandable to all concerned who must implement it. 3. Allow assessment of how organization manages environmental obligations and finds cost-effective solutions. ISO 14000

56. Some unique and important characteristics of ISO 14001 are: It is comprehensive : all members of the organization participate in environmental protection, the EMS considers all stakeholders, and there are processes to identify all environmental impacts. It is proactive : it focuses on forward thinking and action instead of reacting to  command and control policies. It is a systems approach: it stresses improving environmental protection by using a single environmental management system across all functions of the organization. ISO 14000

57. Legal and other requirement Compliance to laws and regulations Issuance of consent and permit conditions Organization – specific codes and programmes that it voluntarily subscribes. Standards and guidelines in the regions where the organization undertakes business.

60. Monitoring and Measurement ISO 14000

61. ISO Explanation The ISO 14001,4.5.1- Monitoring and Measurement, requires that the organization shall establish and maintain documented procedures to monitor and measure , on a regular basis, the key characteristics of its operations and activities that can have a significant impact on the environment This shall include the recording of information to track performance,relevant operational controls and c onformance with the organization’s environmental objectives and targets ISO 14000

62. PURPOSE……. To assess how well the EMS is working Helps to Manage a Business better Identify the performance indicators to monitor the EMS To gauge the Environmental Performance Analyze root causes of Problems Identify areas where corrective action is needed Improve performance and increase efficiency of the organization ISO 14000

63. Getting Started….. Which operations & activities may have significant environmental impacts Which are the key characteristics of these operations & activities How can you measure these characteristics? ISO 14000

66. NONCONFORMANCE AND CORRECTIVE AND PREVENTIVE ACTIONS ISO 14000

67. ISO Explanation ISO 14001,4.5.2 - Nonconformance and corrective and preventive action , requires that the organization shall establish and maintain procedures for defining responsibility and authority for handling and investigating non conformance , taking corrective action to mitigate any impact caused, and for initiating and completing corrective and preventive action ISO 14000

68. Purpose Management Review System Audit Corrective Action ISO 14000

69. Typical Causes of EMS Problems Poor Communication Faulty or Missing Procedures Equipment malfunction or lack of maintenance Lack of Training Lack of understanding of requirements Failure to enforce rules ISO 14000

70. Getting Started The results of monitoring and measurements ,audit findings and other systemic reviews should be documented and reviewed and must lead to corrective actions .If the organization already has an ISO 9000 QMS ,a corrective and preventive action process already exists.The same model may be used for EMS purposes. For a documented problem . The root cause of the systematic failure should be determined .The organization must be committed to implementing corrective actions as quickly as possible. The corrective and Preventive action process should specify responsibilities and schedules.Progress should be reviewed regularly and any deficiencies followed up ISO 14000

71. Contd... The extent of planning and documentation required for corrective and preventive actions may vary with the severity of the problem(and its potential environmental impacts).An appropriate suggestion is “ A simple method always works better” It should be ensured that adequate data and information is collected to determine why a problem has occurred and what corrective actions may be necessary. ISO 14000

72. EMS Elements that Lead to corrective Action and Management Reviews Monitoring Audits Employee Involvement Corrective Action Process Management Review ISO 14000

73. Hints that should not be Ignored! Workers on the shop floor are in the best position to see problems and suggest solutions. All employees should be informed that it is their responsibility to identify and perform corrective actions . This would include reporting nonconformance of operational and procedural natures.It should also be well communicated to all employees that everyone is responsible for solving nonconformance as well. A suitable system improvement process e.g.., via suggestion boxes,incentive programmes should be employed for greater employee participation. In small companies same employees might have been engaged in multiple function,including management review and corrective action processes ..A strong link should exist between the processes for better EMS effectiveness... ISO 14000

74. RECORDS MANAGEMENT ISO 14000

75. ISO Explanation ISO 14001,4.5.3 - Records, states that the organization shall establish and maintain procedures for the identification, maintenance and disposition of environmental records. These records shall include training records and the results of audits and reviews ISO 14000

76. Key Questions in Records Management Identify what records to be maintained. Authorize who keeps them and where and how they are kept. Determine how long they are kept (retention time) Determine how they are accessed and disposed ,including good storage and retrieval system ISO 14000

77. Purpose... Records Management under ISO14001 must be able to prove that the organization is actually doing what it says! To prove that the organization is actually implementing the EMS as designed,one should have a system for managing EMS records. While records have value internally over time one may need to provide evidence of EMS implementation to external parties (such as customers, a registrar , or the public). For records Management, the organization shall develop procedures to maintain, identify,collect, index and store records. ISO 14000

78. TYPES OF RECORDS Environmental aspects determination documentation Legal and other regulatory requirements and records of regulatory violations. Permits consents, licenses and other approvals Progress reports towards meeting objectives and targets. Hazardous material spills, other incident reports and follow ups. MSDS Sampling and monitoring data Maintenance records Calibration and maintenance records for instrumentation Training records EMS audit and regulatory compliance audit reports Management review documentation ISO 14000

79. EMS AUDITS ISO 14000

80. Intro... EMS audit refers to a systematic and documented verification process to determine whether an organization’s EMS conforms to the audit criteria set by the organization and for the communication of the audit results to the top Management. ISO 14000

81. Purpose To determine whether or not EMS conforms to planned arrangements for environmental management including the requirements of this International Standards and has been properly implemented and maintained Provide information on the results of audits to Management Results of EMS audits should be linked to the corrective and preventive actions. Systematic identification and reporting of EMS deficiencies provides a great opportunity for the Management functions to focus on the environment and ensure its cost effectiveness External Auditing is suggested ISO 14000

82. Getting Started The organization should have an Audit Procedure describing Audit Scope Audit Frequency Audit Methods Key responsibilities Reporting Mechanism ISO 14000

83. AUDIT FREQUENCY The nature of the Operations The significant Environmental aspects/impacts identified The results of the monitoring programme Findings of Previous audits audited at least annually AUDITING METHODS - Internal,External auditors The number will depend on the size and complexity of the organizational functions Auditing Techniques ,Management System Concepts Quality systems,Legal compliance etc ISO 14000

87. Intro Management reviews ensure how the EMS will remain viable. It can be used to demonstrate top management’s ongoing support for the environmental issues. It shall address the possible need for changes to policy, objectives, and other elements of the EMS. ISO 14000

88. MR Considers Progress on objectives and targets towards continuing suitability,adequacy and EMS effectiveness New standards legislation and regulations Audit results Environmental Performance measures Reports of emergencies (e.g, spills,leaks, other incidents) New scientific/technical data on products, materials and processes used Internal and External Communications etc ISO 14000

89. IF EMS Procedures and other activities donot add value , eliminate them ISO 14000

90. Getting Started It should involve- those who have the right information and knowledge and who have the authority to make decisions. Schedule and frequency for Management reviews should be determined, typically once or twice in a year. It should assess whether different organizational functions have complied with policy and procedures using audit reports. It should be determined if Capital and other resources , including information management systems are adequate to support the EMS requirements of the Organization. ISO 14000

91. Contd…. It should be determined if the operational controls,procedures, corrective and preventive actions and the continuous improvements efforts have resulted in enhanced environmental performance .changes that result in process improvements should be documented Possible improvements in the organizational structure , operational procedures , training requirements , work instructions , pollution prevention , waste management, energy utilization, process improvements , that may lead to environmental opportunities and organizational benefits should be determined ISO 14000

96. Copley Square Hotel A prominent hotel created an aggressive environmental program that provides a foundation for ISO 14001 registration. The hotel is an historic one with an upscale clientele. Their aggressive approach to reducing their impact on the environment helped them identify many ongoing benefits. The major benefit areas were: recycling, energy use reduction, and water use reduction. The following are the major actions and their results: ISO 14000

97. RECYCLING : ISO 14000

98. Energy Use Reduction: • Energy efficient lighting was installed in public areas which are light 24 hours per day. 60 watt incandescent corridor ceiling lights were replaced 15 watt compact fluorescent lights: savings equal $3,622 annually plus 90% reduction in labor costs. 90 watt incandescent lights in table lamps in the lobby and elevator landings were replaced with 22 watt compact fluorescent lights: savings equal $1,540 annually and reduced labor costs. 30 watt exit sign lights were replaced with 1.8 watt LED exit signs: savings equal $1,179 annually. • Install compact fluorescent bulbs in guest room table lamps and hanging lamps: predicted payback equal 1.81 years. • Install compact fluorescent bulbs in back areas which are lit 24 hours: savings equal to $59.57 per bulb. • Remind employees to turn off all energy using devices that are not being used: no estimate of savings. ISO 14000

99. Water Use Reduction: • Installing toilets with 1.5 gallon capacity, replacing ones with 3.5 gallon capacity will save $3,276 and 430,000 gallons annually. • Showerheads of greater efficiency will save $6,546 and 859,000 gallons annually. • Guest have been offered the option of reusing their towels and linens when staying more than one night. Projected savings are $4,000 annually. ISO 14000

100. Comments This case includes savings that are well known and some that are innovative.
