Overview: A company’s environmental performance can have a significant impact on its success. ISO 14001 is the internationally recognized standard for environmental management systems. This article presents a case study, which discusses how five companies reduced environmental risks and saved money. These companies are Electrolux, Sony, Ericsson, Delphi, and General Motors, which are among the growing number of companies that have implemented environmental management systems and become registered to ISO 14001, the international standard for EMSs. An EMS provides an efficient framework for managing environmental responsibilities. It also helps companies integrate improvement efforts into their overall business operations. ISO 14001-registered companies have discovered that risk management, cost reductions, improved environmental performance, energy savings, and enhanced corporate images are some of the benefits that this standard confers.
