Environmental Management
System
- is a set of processes and practices that
enables an organization to reduce its
environmental impacts and increase its
operating efficiency
- is a framework that helps
a company achieve its
environmental goals
through consistent control
of its operations
- is a systematic approach to environmental
conservation in all aspects of business
through which an enterprise integrates the
care of environment into its business
strategy, and normal operation

History of EMS
• 18th and 19th centuries - the concept of environmental
management can be traced to the Industrial Revolutions
• 1970s - beginning of the creation of environmental laws and
regulations
• 1972 - United Nations organized a Conference on the Human
Environment in Stockholm and UNEP - the United Nations
Environment Programme was launched
• 1987 - Our Common Future (Brundtland Report) was published from
the World Commission on Environment and Development (WCED)
• 1987 - Montreal Protocol - on Substances that Deplete the Ozone
Layer
• 1989 - Basel Convention - on the Control of Transboundary
Movements of Hazardous Wastes and their Disposal
• 1992 - the 1st Earth Summit was held in Rio-de-Janeiro
- a global commitment to the environment.
• 1992 - BSI Group (British Standards Institution) published
the world's 1st EMS standard BS 7750.
• 1996 – based on BS 7750 the ISO 14000 series were
developed by the International Organization for
Standardization
• 2010 - ISO 14001 - used by at least 223 149 organizations
7.12.2012
in 159 countries

EMS related schemes
•
ISO 14001 - the most commonly implemented EMS in the world
- Slovakia - STN EN ISO 14001:2005
•
BS 8555 - designed for SMEs wanting to implement an EMS on a gradual,
step-by-step basis, combination of ISO 14001 and elements of ISO 14031.
•
EMAS - The Eco-Management and Audit Scheme is a European initiative
which differs from ISO 14001 in that, in addition to having an EMS in place,
the organisation is required to produce an environmental performance
statement and have this independently verified by a third party such as BSI.
- Slovakia - Act no. 351/2012 Coll
•
EMAS easy - a new approach based on Ecomapping; the business is mapped
to identify its environmental aspects. With EMAS Easy smaller businesses can
develop an EMS and either register for EMAS or certify to ISO 14001.
•
Energy Management System (EnMS) - standard BS EN 16001 – for managing
an organization's energy use, has the same structure as ISO 14001 and
overlaps with it in a number of areas.
•
The Carbon Trust Standard is awarded to organizations that measure,
manage and reduce their carbon footprint.

Benefits of EMS
Why to implement EMS?
• Cost savings - from saving energy to the minimization
of waste and the cost of disposal, as well lower insurance rates
• A positive company image – better relations with interested
parties
• Enhanced internal and external communication
• Improved environmental compliance – lover risk of breaches and
potential fines
• Reduced environmental liability and risks
• Increased competitiveness and market opportunities - company
is attractive to the widest possible market
• Increasing employee motivation and enhanced personnel skills
