significance

The ISO 14000 series of standards is, in the final analysis, a set of management standards. It is the crystallization of environmental management experience of industrial developed countries. When formulating national standards, the situation of different countries has been taken into account to make the standards as common as possible.

·The positive impact of ISO 14001 standards on enterprises is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

·Establish enterprise image and improve enterprise reputation

·Promote enterprises to consciously abide by environmental laws and regulations

·Promote enterprises to consider their impact on the environment in their production, operation, service and other activities, and reduce the environmental load

·Enable enterprises to obtain the "green pass" to enter the international market

·Enhance the environmental awareness of enterprise employees

·Promote enterprises to save energy, recycle waste and reduce operating costs

·Promote enterprises to strengthen environmental management

Main impacts

In 1996, ISO first issued five standards related to environmental management system and its audit, which attracted the attention of governments and industry. By the end of 1997, only one year after the promulgation of the standard, 1491 enterprises in the world had passed the ISO14001 standard certification; By the end of 1998, the number had reached 5017; By the end of 1999, more than 10000 enterprises had passed the certification.

Our government attaches great importance to environmental management. The five standards that have been issued have been transformed into national standards. They are:

GB/T24001-1996 idt ISO14001 Environmental Management System Specification and Guidance for Use

GB/T24004-1996 idt ISO14004 Environmental Management Systems - Guidelines for Principles, Systems and Support Technologies

GB/T24010-1996 idt ISO14010 General Principles of Environmental Audit System

GB/T24011-1996 idt ISO14011 Environmental Audit System Audit Procedure Environmental Management System Audit

GB/T24012-1996 idt ISO14012 Environmental Audit System Qualification Requirements for Environmental Auditors

Among them, ISO14001 is the core of this series of standards. It is not only the basis for establishing the environmental management system and auditing or reviewing the environmental management system, but also the basis for formulating other ISO14000 series standards.

The important feature of ISO14000 series standards is that, first of all, the standards are not mandatory, but voluntary. The ISO14000 series standards draw on the successful experience of the ISO9000 standard, making the standard widely applicable and flexible. It can be applied to organizations of any type and size under different geographical, cultural and social conditions. The ISO14000 series standards have good compatibility with ISO9000 standards, which enables enterprises to effectively coordinate with the original management system when adopting ISO14000 series standards. "Prevention first" is the leading ideology running through ISO14000 series standards, which requires enterprises to commit to pollution prevention and implement it in the system. Continuous improvement is the soul of ISO14000 series standards. Through the implementation of the standards, the organization has established a mechanism for continuous improvement. In the process of continuous improvement, it realizes its commitment to society and ultimately achieves the goal of improving environmental performance.

The implementation of ISO14000 series standards is conducive to improving the environmental awareness of the whole nation and establishing the idea of sustainable development; It is conducive to improving people's awareness of abiding by the law and the implementation of environmental laws and regulations; It is conducive to mobilizing the initiative of enterprises to prevent and control environmental pollution, and promoting enterprises to continuously improve environmental management; It is conducive to promoting the conservation and rational utilization of resources and energy; It is conducive to achieving bilateral and multilateral certification of environmental certification among countries and eliminating technical barriers to trade.
