Implementing ISO 14001
Assign topic to the user
Answer:
First, it would be better to implement ISO 14001:2015 because in this way you will avoid the transition process within next two years.
The first step in implementation of ISO 14001 is to conduct GAP analysis to determine to what extent the organization already meets the requirements of the standard. The next step is to develop project plan with defined activities and documents to be created in order to achieve full compliance with the standard. Then you need to create documents and update your processes so they align with the standard.
After the implementation, you need to conduct internal audit and management review to ensure that your EMS (Environmental Management System) is compliant with the standard and finally you can hire certification body to conduct certification audit and issue your company the certificate.
