  • Procedures vs processes

    In your demo, we only talk about writing procedures. I would like to know if the processes are not mandatory? You do not mention it. IF I understand the update just rest these 12 procedures?
  • Process model and documentation

    I subscribed to your site and started buying procedures. But I noticed that on your site we do not talk about processes or at least there is no process model. Can you tell me a little bit about the processes knowing that the standard requires writing processes or is not mandatory.
  • Activities after the implementation

    I would like to know what to do after the implementation of the procedures and the compulsory documentation? I still do not find myself on process development knowing that our business has business-based processes. I am a trainee and I have the mission to update the EMS of my company.
  • Main objective of the EMS

    What are the main objectives of environmental management?
  • How to address life cycle perspective in providing services?

    Life cycle perspective is not too difficult to implement for products, but may be a bit more complicated when providing services. A logistic company has to control carefully waste, fuel, trucks when designing and executing deliveries. Is it enough? Can you give me some suggestion'
  • Interested parties and leadersip

    No idea on the interest parties and leadership. Mind to help?
  • Processes vs. Procedures

    What is the difference in the Processes versus Procedures in 14001?
  • Environmental controls in virtual company

    Hi, can you give me some advice please – our organisation is virtual, so everyone works from home. My question is in relation to the Guidelines – in our work we do not have medical waste, for example, so that guideline is not applicable. But where a guideline could be applied to individuals home premises, would this therefore become applicable? For example the waste management Guideline?
  • Determining environmental context

    1) How do I include environmental conditions and events?
  • Risks and opportunities in ISO 14001:2015

    Dear Strahinja, To give you a little background, we are a small electronics company with approximately 120 employees. We have been working to implement ISO 14001:2015 for approximately 6 weeks. We already were compliant with ISO 14001:2004 version. We are planning to have our first NSF audit 7/17/17. I believe that most of the 14001:2015 requirements are being covered but we are still very confused on Risks. I have read multiple white pages but I haven't seen an actual example of an environmental Risk. I decided to utilize our APQP risk assessment form because it is very similar to others I found on the internet. But when my team sits down to discuss what a Risk is, I struggle to be able to explain it. We already have a list of aspects, so do we utilize the aspect list to create potential environmental problems that become our Risks or are Risks something we invent? For example, there is a fire and the fire reaches our stock of different types of plastic, burning it and creating dangerous smoke that pollutes the air. Would this b e one Risk? If so, then do I sit the EMS team down and invent multiple Risks that our processes could create if something major happens in the facility? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks
