ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

SYSTEMS: EMS

What is an EMS?

An EMS is a formal set of policies and procedures thatdefine how an organization will evaluate, manage, andtrack its environmental impact. It follows the basicmodel:

Plan > Do > Check > Act

performance by defining and continuously improvingthe process and actions that an organization undertakesto meet its environmental goals.

organization then evaluates each aspectaccording to a variety of criteria:understanding of eco-ethics

environmental and health effects
