ISO 14001:2004
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) is a non government, non profit organization with representatives of the national standards institutes of 157 countries. ISO develops and promulgates commercial and industrial standards on a particular topic (currently over 1300 standards) with the intention of enabling international standardization on that topic.
14001:2004 is ISO’s Environmental management systems standard. This standard has been adopted without modification as CSA Standard CAN/CSA – ISO 14001:04, which has been approved as a National Standard of Canada by the Standards Council of Canada.
In order to achieve certification an organization must be thoroughly audited by a certified third party certification company, who is in turn certified and holds an internationally recognized registration for both the company and the specific auditor(s).
The audit undergone by Omni Facility Services Canada Limited GTA Branch verifies that both our policies and procedures comply with the requirements of the ISO 14001:2004 standards and goes further to include site audits to ensure that the policy, procedure and commitment is implemented and understood by all levels of the organization.
