Haines Painting and Decorating Ltd are keen to ensure that while carrying out our day to day business, we do not have an adverse impact on the environment.

The environment has been identified as a top priority for us. The achievement of ISO 14001 has been incorporated into our 2010 business objectives and operating in an environmentally sustainable way has been included as part of our company vision for the future.

What exactly is ISO 14001 and why have we set this as our target for 2010?

The ISO14000 series are a set of environmental management systems. ISO refers to the International Standards Organisation. These standards are adopted and recognised around the world.

ISO 14001 was first published in 1996 and specifies the actual requirements for an environmental management system. It applies to those environmental aspects to which the organization has control and over which it can be expected to have an influence.

ISO 14001 is often seen as the corner stone standard of the ISO 14000 series. However, it is not only the most well known, but is the only ISO 14000 standard against which it is currently possible to be certified by an external certification authority.

 

This standard is applicable to any organization that wishes to:

  • implement, maintain and improve an environmental management system
  • assure itself of its conformance with its own stated environmental policy (those policy commitments of course must be made)
  • demonstrate conformance
  • ensure compliance with environmental laws and regulations
  • seek certification of its environmental management system by an external third party organization
  • make a self-determination of conformance
  •
