Documenting context of the organization

Hi, I just want to know where can we include the internal and external issues. Does it need to be a record sheet or not. Thanks

Answer:

ISO 14001 does not require context of the organization (internal and external issues) to be documented. However, if you decide to document them you can do it through some kind of record, it can be a sheet or record from the meeting on which the organization determined the context. This document can be kept separately, or can be an appendix to the manual, the document about the scope, etc.

For more information, see: Determining the context of the organization in ISO 14001 https://advisera.com/14001academy/knowledgebase/determining-the-context-of-the-organization-in-iso-14001/
