Abstract

Argues that a company‐based environmental management system is no longer an option. Its stance is that much can be learned from the experiences of the development of total quality management and that central to any system has to be the notion of a continuous cycle of improvement. Lays out a possible organizational structure of an environmental management system and discusses the stages to the development of that structure and the important characteristics of the system. Discusses links to quality systems and in particular to BS 5750, along with an overview of BS 7750. Identifies critical success factors in the operation of the environmental management system.
