Environmental Management Systems Certification (ISO 14001)

Increasing concern for the environment and how it is affected by industry and work practices has led to the development and adoption of the international environmental management standard, ISO 14001. This standard sets out specifications that are designed to enable your organisation to manage the effect of its activities on the environment. It addresses issues such as planning, implementation, measurement, evaluation and review of the organisation's system for managing its environmental impact.

Implementation of such a system provides advantages for the organisation including identifying wasteful and environmentally harmful practices, better resource usage, reduced risk of litigation, and promoting a responsible corporate image.

Certification of your organisation's environmental management system to ISO 14001 ensures that your system is working optimally and is continuing to conform to the standard.

It also provides independent verification and recognition for your system and reinforces your environmental commitment in the eyes of your customers, your employees and the public.

Moody International Certification Ltd. has been accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Services (UKAS), registration no. 041, to provide third party Environment Management System (EMS) certification to ISO 14000 standard in the scope covering most of industry sectors.
