Product Description
The design and implementation of an ISO 14001 environmental management system (EMS) need not be complicated or costly, and this book focuses on getting a basic yet effective EMS in place with minimal effort so that the organization can move quickly towards the environmental performance improvements that will be needed to meet the growing international demand for corporate environmental stewardship. The real benefit of ISO 14001 is that it can significantly improve an organization s environmental performance while greatly improving its bottom line at the same time. Unfortunately, most companies that have implemented ISO 14001 have not yet moved beyond compliance and have not yet realized these dual benefits. In order to support the goal of quick and easy ISO 14001 implementation, dozens of tools, checklists, procedure templates, and spreadsheets applicable to organizations of all sizes are provided on an accompanying CD-ROM. These tools not only speed the design and implementation of the EMS, they also provide for efficient and effective ongoing maintenance of the system. Contents: Part 1 Environmental Management System Overview Chapter 1 Management Systems Overview Chapter 2 Environmental Management Systems and the ISO 14001:2004 Standard Part 2 Environmental Management System Design and Deployment Chapter 3 The Planning Phase Chapter 4 The Design Phase Chapter 5 The Deployment Phase Part 3 Environmental Management System Improvement Chapter 6 The Improvement Phase Chapter 7 Conducting Environmental Management System Audits Chapter 8 Moving Beyond Compliance

EMS Quick and Easy - A clear winner April 12, 2008
M. Yusuf Oozeer (Mauritius)
I have never written any reviews, so why this one? It's that I was thrilled to read a book that stand true to its title `Environmental Management Quick and Easy'. Besides being a quick and easy read, the author does a wonderful job in explaining in very comprehensive terms every aspects of EMS. The book is organized into 3 Parts. Part 1 explains in details every section of the standards, Part II look after Design and Deployment and Part III wrap up EMS improvements. As a bonus the book accompanied CD-ROM contains tools, cheklist and template - Sample Audit Check List, Aspect Identification checklist, Environment Briefing survey, Environmental Bulletin, Excel Work Book, Project Plan, Management Review Agenda, Project Charter and Project Communication Plan - in brief all ingredients required to boost up your EMS implementation.
If you happen to be part of the EMS team in your organisation like me, look no further, you have a clear winner here, go and grab it, the CD itself worth more than the price of the book. It deserves 6 stars.
