Environmental Management Systems (EMS)
Being able to demonstrate the Environmental Management of your business activities is important. When your EMS is robust enough, you can apply for external certification to demonstrate your commitment to those who matter.
GSUK will assist your company to the EMS Standards ISO14001 and BS 8555. The implementation of either of these standards provides a transparent and auditable trail of your business activities, which customers and Regulators hold in high regard (often a vital requirement for supplying to larger companies).
An EMS isn’t just about audits and procedures. It adds real value to your company, by providing the following benefits:
• Ensures ongoing compliance with environmental legislation – you won’t get caught out!
• Safeguards your corporate image – gives you the edge over competitors
• Will produce considerable cost benefits through better resource usage (energy, water and reduces waste)
• Can open new business opportunities in markets where responsible environmental management is a pre-requisite.
GSUK has extensive expertise in this area. We can develop all or part of your EMS to get you ready for certification.
Perhaps your company is more suited to a stepped approach?
Ask us about BS8 555 – where your company can gain certification for a staged approach to a full EMS. This solution may be more beneficial to
SMEs or companies where dedicated internal expertise is limited.
Or, if you already have an in-house EMS in place, GSUK can provide internal auditing or a gap analysis for your external certification process; tailor made for your company.
