Confessions of a convert: What I learnt from the ISO 14001
9th March 2010
Stephen Bentley, chief executive of Granby Marketing Services, explains how the popular environment management standard, ISO 14001, won him over, in this recent article.
After careful consideration, we came to the conclusion that the ISO 14001 would move us to where we wanted to be much quicker, even though it would demand the most work and would be the most difficult to achieve. A major factor in this decision was the fact that the ISO 14001 was based on continual improvement and year-on-year benchmark assessments. This meant that rather than standing still we could develop and grow the business around an environmentally sustainable model.
