Description
Environmental auditors are professionals who audit companies in accordance with the current environmental management standards (ISO14000). In other cases, these professionals may help companies to obtain this certificate and to implement the European Union's Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS). The aim of the ISO14000 standards is to promote environmental management at companies, similarly to how the ISO9000 standards have promoted the management of quality. The EMAS (Echo-Management and Audit Scheme), meanwhile, is a voluntary environmental management system that allows companies and organisations to assess and improve their behaviour in the environmental sphere and communicate information to the public and other interestd parties. ISO14001-certified companies can join the EMAS if they fulfil a series of additional requirements (e.g. complying with environmental legislation, public information, worker participation, the constant improvement of environmental behaviour, etc.).
