How long will I have to make the transition to ISO 14001:2015?

Posted on Posted in Standard Development

According to the ISO website, a 3-year transition period has been established.

It states:

” Organizations are granted a three-year transition period after the revision has been published to migrate their environmental management system to the new edition of the standard.

After this transition period, companies that opt for third party certification will have to seek certification to the new version of the standard. The former version, ISO 14001:2004, and any certification to it, will be out of date.”

For more information about certification options, check out the additional information on the EMS Certification page of this website.
