What are the Main Implementation Issues for The ISO 14000 Standards?
Although TC 207 was created to develop standards, it would be remiss if it did not look beyond the published standards to their use and influence in the marketplace. TC 207 has taken several initiatives to help ensure that the standards do what they were designed to do, and that they meet the needs of all of their intended users, including small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) and businesses in developing countries. In fact, TC 207 is placing increasing emphasis meeting the needs of these organizations. These make up the vast majority of businesses in the world, and their use of the ISO 14000 standards is essential to the success of the series.
