Let us consider two situations: 1. Implementing an environmental management system (EMS) and then; 2. Certifying that EMS.
These disadvantages are not universal, some organizations will suffer more or less from them. They are like an investment, what you pay in order to get a return, the benefits.
Implementing an EMS
- Work burden – acting proactively to improve the relationship with the environment will add more work than necessary for just complying with conformance obligations;
- Extra cost – The extra work means extra cost;
- Personal resistance – Some people may consider it is a waste of resources and offer resistance during implementation and maintenance phases;
Certifying an EMS
- More transparency normally means more cost
