Management review according to ISO 14001:2015

1. We have an Management review procedure in place, what are the important elements that we need to add or remove to align with the new requirements.?

In additions to management review inputs and outputs defined in the previous version of the standard, new version requires consideration of:
- context of the organization relevant to the environmental management system
- the needs and expectations of interested parties
- risks and opportunitties

2. Do we need to remove the term MR (Management representative) or his or her roles and responsibilities in all of our revised documents?

No, it is not necessary. Although the standard no longer requires MR as a mandatory role, the companies can decide to keep this role as a part of the EMS. If your organization decides not to keep MR as a role within the EMS, MR's roles should be transferred to other people or other roles, in this case you will have to revise the documents and change them accordingly.
