ISO 14001 Environmental Management Systems

⇒ What is ISO 14001 (Environmental Management System)?

ISO 14001 specifies requirements for an environmental management system. It helps organizations identify environmental aspects, manage obligations, set objectives and improve environmental performance through a structured management approach.

ISO published ISO 14001:2026 in April 2026, replacing the 2015 edition. Organizations with existing certificates should confirm applicable transition arrangements with their certification body. Publication of a new edition does not by itself establish IQRA’s accredited scope or service availability.
