ISO 37301
Compliance Management

ISO 37301 is an international standard and contains guidelines for the use of compliance management systems. Such systems help to identify and understand the risks of non-compliant behaviour and to respond to them correctly. ISO 37301 also makes it possible to prove that all those involved have behaved in accordance with the rules and that those responsible have fulfilled their obligations to a sufficient extent. Further objectives are the evaluation of the effectiveness of compliance measures and the communication thereof, as well as ongoing process improvement. As an ISO standard, the standard is internationally consistent and is intended to provide organisations and companies operating across borders with a reliable and applicable system for compliant behaviour.

EN ISO 14001 Environmental Management

An organization that implements an environmental management system is committed to the continuous improvement of its entire environmental performance and to the use of processes, methods, materials or products that prevent, reduce or control environmental pollution, as well as their environmentally relevant review. Added to this is the obligation to comply with the relevant environmental laws and regulations, as well as to provide open internal and external communication about corporate environmental protection. EN ISO 14001 specifies the requirements for an environmental management system (EMS), with the goal of systematization and improvement of operational measures to protect people and nature, to promote environmental protection and to prevent environmental pollution. Based on the analysis of material and energy flows, options and targets for the reduction of waste, wastewater and emissions are developed.
