Where Industrial revolution brought prosperity to various countries and communities it has also had adverse impact on local ecosystems. Be it Carbon emissions, toxic waste from factories, spillages, radioactive dump, noise, carbon footprints lead to significant consequences towards environment with impacts on the ecosystem, rising sea levels and temperatures, destruction of habitat and natural resources. We are only beginning to experience the brunt as rammifications of our economic activities in the form of run away global warming, food and water shortages, flash floods, abherrent weather patterns, etc.

It has been proven that there is a 95% chance that the increase in global warming is due to human activity. As once marsh lands and rain forests turn into barren wastelands and concrete jungles it is the need of the hour for us to be introspective as a species and develop conscientious sustainable development models that are long lasting and ensure the survival of our species. It is imperative not just from an organization’s perspective but is now a major compliance requirement from governmental, non-governmental organizations, regulators and other stakeholders to implement best practices in Environmental sustainability so that we may ensure that any Economic growth is essentially sustainable and leaves little or no undesirable impacts on our ecosystem.

Key features of ISO 14001:2015

  • Context of Organization: Identifying the internal and external context of the Organization with respect to the extent, breadth, depth and scope of implementation by collating and structuring the processes around the requirements of Internal stake holders and external requirements like legislative, legal, requirements from principals, employees, externally provided goods and services, regulators, independent agencies and other interested parties.
  • Environmental Risk Framework (Aspects/Impacts): The revised standard like its previous iteration requires organizations to develop a comprehensive Risk Management framework in order to identify the aspects, which may potentially impact the outcome of an organization’s processes and mitigate those impacts with respect to the environment. The difference is that now organizations are required to extrapolate those impacts based on the organization’s context, external and internal issues.
  • Common High Level Structure: The ISO 14001:2015 Certification standard is designed based on a common high level management standards structure (MSS) called Annex SL which serves as a common framework for integrating and interpreting other ISO standards.
  • Documented Information: Given the recent advances in automation within organizations ISO 14001:2015 Certification standard has removed the requirement for Control of documents and control of records and replaces those clauses with ‘documented Information’. Since, many organizations rely on automated cloud based systems and/or comprehensive ERP and CRM solutions, the need for maintaining copious amount of paper work has been made redundant as long as those requirements are being met by their automated processes.
  • Leadership: ISO 14001:2015 Certification standard now requires leadership to take a proactive role in establishing responsibilities and authorities for the success and failure of systems. The need for a QMR has been removed and instead the standard focuses on establishing leadership roles across the board to be initiated by the leadership of the organization and cascaded down to the level of frontline managers, supervisors and employees.
  • Knowledge Management: Initially a requirement of the EFQM Model and Total Quality Management (TQM) the standard now requires to organizations to maintain the explicit and tacit information of an organization as its cumulative knowledge and wisdom over the tenure of its existence and experiences.
