#ISO 14001 STANDARD DEFINITION ISO#
One important difference between ISO 14001 and other ISO standards is that an organization can self-declare their compliance. You can only measure your environmental impact as a snapshot on a given day, then improve it from there.
ISO 14001 is less prescriptive: There is no set “benchmark” to rate the performance of your organization against others.

ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 share a similar Plan-Do-Check-Act structure and have many similarities, but they do not directly align clause for clause. ISO 14001 is an Environmental Management System (EMS) which gives organizations a systematic approach for measuring and improving their environmental impact.
ISO 9001 is a Quality Management System (QMS) which gives organizations a systematic approach for meeting customer objectives and providing consistent quality.
