Does Your Company Have an Environmental Management System?
An EMS, otherwise known as an environmental management system, describes how your company manages their environmental programs in a systematic, planned, comprehensive and documented way. It includes the processes and procedures for monitoring and reporting environmental performances as well as training of employees.
By developing this system, you are creating a process for improving environmental performance and encouraging environmental buy-in from management and employees – which brings in responsibility and accountability. It also sets a framework for training, so that you can achieve objectives and the performance levels required.
The overall goal of an Environmental Management System is to reduce waste and increase compliance to minimal legal standards. If your company is not compliant, you might be faced with fines, government intervention or even be shut down. This can cost your business a lot in summary, so complying is the best course of action for your bottom line.
Waste reduction is also very important not only to reduce environmental impact, but also to save the company money. The more efficiently the company uses materials, the more money they will save.
