ISO 14001:2004
Environmental Management Systems
Enterprises with an implemented environmental system, according to ISO 14001, assure their effort for:
1. Prevention of pollution
2. Continuous improvement of their environmental performance
3. Compliance with applicable environmental laws.
Enterprises that confront with the requirements of an internationally recognised standard as ISO 14001:2004, approve their commitment to the installation and implementation of an effective management tool, which is based on the following principles:
- Prevention of pollution
- Continuous improvement of their environmental performance
- Compliance with applicable environmental legislation.
Just some of the benefits of implementing an Environmental Management System are:
- Reduction of production costs of products and services, because of the rational management of natural resources and saving energy
- Creation of a relationship of trust between enterprises and local authorities, which helps to speed up approvals for companies requests
- Prevention of environmental accidents
- Recognition by consumers
- Compliance with environmental legislation
Enterprises, as live cells grown in the social tissue, are obliged to undertake actions that benefit the environment in which they operate. But no actions taken, do not acquire the importance it deserves, unless there is some kind of verification for every action . Such a verification process is the inspection and subsequent certification, of the environmental actions of companies.
TÜV HELLAS having great experience in the field of Environmental Management Systems Certification, carries out inspections and issue certificates accredited by both the German and the Greek Council of Accreditation (DAKKS and ESYD)
