    What is Environment????

    surroundings of an object

    sum of all living and non-living things that

    surround an organism, or group of

    organisms

    Types of Environment

    Natural environment is not man-made, such as Earth and all ofits natural component including ground water, flora and fauna. It isfull of beauty and hazards.

    Induced environment are those been affected by humanaction e.g. highly polluted air that results from exhaust emissionsof automobiles in heavily populated cities.

    Controlled environment is a natural or induced environmentthat has been changed in some way to reduce or eliminatepotential environmental hazards e.g. a home or workplace that iscooled to reduce potential hazards associated with heat.

    Artificial environment one that fully created to prevent definitehazardous conditions from affecting people or material e.g.

    environment within the space shuttle. Closed environment one that is completely or almost

    completely shut off from natural environment. Both controlled andartificial environment must be closed.

    Free environment one that does not interfere with the freemovement of air.

    Pollution

    Introduction by man, waste matter or

    surplus energy into the environment,which directly or indirectly causes

    damage to man and his environment

    Environmental Management

    Systems (EMS)

    What is an EMS?

    Part of overall management structure

    Purpose of EMS

    Address immediate & long-term environmental

    impacts

    Why have an EMS?Provide order and consistency in methods

    System wide approach to environmental

    management

    Incorporates environmental considerations

    into daily organization decisions

    Provides a framework to continually improveenvironmental performance

    Components of Management System

    Step 1: Establishing a policy statement

    Step 2: PlanningStep 3: Implementing and operating

    Step 4: Checking

    Step 5: Reviewing

    Designing, Developing and Implementing a

    Management System: Step 1 - Establishing a policy

    statement

    A policy statement will outline the strategic values that are most

    important to the company and provide the foundation upon which

    you build your management system.

    Documented, communicated and available both internally and

    externally

    It should address what is important to your business and/or yourclients and your companys strategic values

    Consider avoiding vague statements

    15/51

    Step 2 -Planning

    Planning is critical and should be as holistic as practical.

    1. Identify the elements of the organizations activities, products and

    services that intersect with the companys policy.

    Which can the organization control and/or influence?

    Which are the most important to control?

    2. Establish a process to identify legal and other requirements, and

    to maintain compliance.

    3. Set goals to help you achieve and continue to improve upon your

    management system.

    15

  • 8/7/2019 Environmental Management Systems to Present

    16/51

    Step 3 -Implementing and operating

    Identify the requirements necessary to execute against your policy and

    plans:

    Defined roles and responsibilities

    Identify proper skills, education and/or experience necessary for

    persons executing the requirements of the management system

    Process to communicate relevant information about the management

    system and performance to employees and other interested parties

    Document and control the core elements of the management system

    that are essential to maintain operational control

    Plan for emergency situations

    Step 4 -Checking

    Establish a process to monitor performance, legal compliance and theexecution of management system requirements.

    The self-assessments and/or internal audits should closely examine whether:

    Employees are aware of the policy statement and understand how what

    they do in their job might impact it

    The company is in compliance with legal and other requirements

    Procedures, processes and related documents exist where necessary for

    the management system to be maintained in a sustainable manner

    Identify records that must be maintained to demonstrate legal compliance

    and operational control

    18

  • 8/7/2019 Environmental Management Systems to Present

    19/51

    Step 5 - Reviewing

    Periodic review with top management. Some elements of this

    review should include:

    Status of goals and targets

    Status of compliance with legal and other applicable requirements

    Identification of any changes to business operations

    Discussion regarding opportunities for improvement

    Any resulting action that management identifies as a need forchanges to the management system, goals, other opportunities forimprovement or is there a need to change the policy statement?

    The ISO 14000 Series of Standards

    The term ISO 14000 Series refers to a family ofenvironmental management standard that coverthe five disciplines:

    environmental management system environmental auditor criteria (these criteria

    may be used by internal/external auditors andexternal third-party auditors)

    environmental performance evaluation criteria environmental labeling criteria

    Life-cycle assessment methods.

    The ISO is a specialized international organizationwhose members are the national standards bodies of111 countries.

    All standards developed by ISO are voluntary

    ISO 14000 is a series of international standards onenvironmental management.

    "ISO 14000" is the first international attempt tostandardize environmental management practicesaround the world.

    ISO 14000 will help integrate the environmentalmanagement systems of companies that trade with eachother in all corners of the world.

    An ISO 14001:2004-based EMS

    An EMS meeting the requirements of ISO 14001:2004 is a

    management tool enabling an organization of any size or

    type to:

    identify and control the environmental impact of its activities,

    products or services, and to

    improve its environmental performance continually, and to

    implement a systematic approach to setting environmental

    objectives and targets, to achieving these and to

    demonstrating that they have been achieved.

    The European Union continues to advance

    legislation to protect her population from

    exposure to hazardous substances used

    in products as well as during product

    disposal.

  • 8/7/2019 Environmental Management Systems to Present

    31/51

    In 2007, the European Union adopted the REACHregulations which bring unprecedented scope,complexity and mandatory tracking of substances inmost every article (product) that Europeans use.

    The REACH regulation: Regulation, Evaluation,Authorization of Chemicals; requires the registration ofhazardous substances that are sold, imported,manufactured or used in quantities exceeding 1 ton/yearand covers substances on their own, in preparations, or

    used in a manufacturers articles.

  • 8/7/2019 Environmental Management Systems to Present

    32/51

    REACH is one of the most comprehensive and far-

    reaching pieces of environmental legislation to come out

    of the European Union.

    Compliance with REACH is mandatory for continued

    sales of chemicals and products in the European Union.

    RE

    ACH goes beyond the hazardous material contentrequirements starting with registering substances

    intentionally released during manufacturing.

  • 8/7/2019 Environmental Management Systems to Present

    33/51

    These substances must be registered for the purposeand have a chemical safety report when used in quantityabove a threshold level.

    Over 30,000 chemicals are expected to fall under thescope of the REACH directive, and require thatmanufacturers, importers and distributors of substances,preparations and articles fulfill REACH obligations.

    Additionally, approximately 1,000 other materials areconsidered Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC)and prohibited by REACH.

    REACH aims at

    - improving the protection of human health and theenvironment from the risks that can be posed by

    chemicals;- enhancing the competitiveness of the EEA chemicals

    industry, a key sector for the economy of the EEA;

    - promoting alternative methods for the assessment of

    hazards of substances;- ensuring the free circulation of substances on the internal

    market of the European Union.
