ISO 14001:2018  specifies the requirements for an environmental management system that an organization can use to enhance its environmental performance. ISO 14001:2018 is intended for use by an organization seeking to manage its environmental responsibilities in a systematic manner that contributes to the environmental pillar of sustainability.

ISO 14001:2018 helps an organization achieve the intended outcomes of its environmental management system, which provide value for the environment, the organization itself, and interested parties. Consistent with the organization’s environmental policy, the intended outcomes of an environmental management system include:

• enhancement of environmental performance;
• fulfilment of compliance obligations;
• achievement of environmental objectives.

ISO 14001:2018 is applicable to any organization, regardless of size, type, and nature, and applies to the environmental aspects of its activities, products, and services that the organization determines it can either control or influence considering a life cycle perspective. ISO 14001:2018 does not state specific environmental performance criteria.

ISO 14001:2018 can be used in whole or in part to systematically improve environmental management.
