Abstract:
Ce travail de recherche vise à développer des méthodologies d’évaluation mécanique des implants dentaires, de leurs composants prothétiques et de l’interaction avec les tissus osseux de la mâchoire. D’après l’Organisation Mondiale de la Santé (OMS), 15 à 20% de la population âgée de 35 à 44 ans est atteint de problèmes d’édentation partielle et près de 30% de la population âgée de 65 à 74 d’édentation totale. Cela représente donc approximativement 7 millions de personnes en France ayant subi des pertes de dents durant leur vie. Les traitements proposés par l’implantologie dentaire sont devenus des solutions efficaces pour les problèmes d’édentation avec des taux de réussite cliniques supérieurs à 90%. Cependant, des complications cliniques existent, caractérisées par des inflammations ou des pertes partielles des tissus environnants. Les dentistes étant responsables du choix du traitement thérapeutique pour leurs patients, la prise d’une décision appropriée est capitale et exige une compréhension des risques et des bénéfices. C’est dans ce contexte qu’une première méthodologie d’évaluation a été développée pour améliorer le design des implants dentaires de type endosseux, dans les conditions de la norme de certification ISO 14801. La méthodologie est basée sur des approches numériques par Analyse d’Eléments Finis. Ensuite, des approches théoriques et des données cliniques ont été utilisées pour évaluer le comportement mécanique des tissus osseux de la mâchoire face aux différentes configurations par implants dentaires et leurs composants prothétiques
The research purpose in this study is to develop of mechanical evaluation methods to dental implants, their prosthetic components and the interactions with bone tissues in mandible zone. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 15 to 20% of population from 35 to 44 years old is reached of partial edentulism problems and about 30% of population from 65 to 74 years old is reached of complete edentulism problems. This represents approximately 7 million people in France who have lost teeth during their lifetime. Treatments proposed by dental implantology have become effective solutions for edentulous patients with clinical success rates greater than 90%. However, clinical complications exist, characterized by inflammation or partial losses of the surrounding tissues. Dentists are responsible for the treatment choice for their patients; an appropriate decision is crucial and requires an understanding of the benefits and risks. In this context, a first methodology was developed for evaluated the endosseous dental implants under the conditions of the ISO 14801 certification standard. This methodology is based with an approach numerical by Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Furthermore, theoretical approaches and clinical data were used to evaluate the mechanical resistance of the bone tissues in the jaw with different dental implant configurations and their prosthetic components

Abstract:
Today the ISO 14001 system is used within a rather wide spectrum of firms and industries, even if the early adopters of the standard mainly where organizations in the heavy industry and manufacturing sectors (Peglaue and Baxter, 2007). Many of those early adopters have now been certified for over 10 years, and during the years several surveys and case studies have been conducted to pinpoint the motives, benefits and challenges for why organizations chose to implement and maintain the system (Massoud, 2010; Jiang and Bansal, 2003). However, one issue with research about ISO 14001 up until now is that most studies have focused upon a managerial perspective where the managers´ attitudes have been in focus rather than the employees (Boiral, 2007). Therefore, this case study set out to explore how the employees, the production operators, inside one certified organization are involved in ISO 14001 through a Grounded Theory approach. The results of the study showed that the production operators relied upon different strategies in order to legitimize their involvement in ISO 14001. Further on, the study shows that the production operators where involved in ISO 14001 at a level which was required in order to keep the certification. However, they could not obtain enough legitimacy to motivate an involvement in ISO 14001 which extended what was required in order to keep the certification. Grounded in the discovery of the different strategies used by the employees, this study argues that environmental awareness could be seen as an internal barrier and as a source for unsatisfied employees. Something which risks emphasizes a feeling of being involved in a rational myth (Boiral, 2007).

Abstract:
Arbetet med miljöfrågorna är svåra att strukturera och därför har olika internationella miljöstandarder skapats. SS-EN ISO 14000 är en serie internationella miljöstandarder, som i dagligt tal kallas ISO 14000 och i denna standard ingår ISO 14001 vilken kan användas som grund vid uppbyggandet av ett miljöledningssystem och det är införandet av denna som analysen vilar på. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vilka hinder som kan uppstå vid införandet av ISO 14001-standarden. Även att identifiera vilka lösningar som finns att tillgå gällande hindren. Dessutom utforskas vilka de olika incitamenten är som driver en verksamhet till att vilja integrera miljöfrågor bland övriga beslut. Slutligen granskas fördelar med att införa miljöledningssystemet ISO 14001.

Abstract:

Företagens tillämpning av miljöledningssystemet ISO 14001 har sedan etableringen år 1994 fram till idag gradvist stegrat. Miljöfrågor får allt mer uppmärksamhet av allmänheten, samtidigt ställs det krav på företag om att de ska driva sin verksamhet utifrån ett miljövänligt perspektiv.

Miljöledningssystemet ISO 14001 är en internationellt känd standard och förekommer oftare bland företag som innehar en certifiering. Investering av ett miljöledningssystem för med sig stora kostnader och företaget förväntas arbeta mycket och tillsammans för att få det att fungera väl. Det finns företag som driver sin verksamhet samtidigt som de tar hänsyn till miljön, men det är först när företag använder sig av ett miljöledningssystem som deras miljöarbete får betydelse. Det kan förklaras med den extra post som tillkommer; miljörevision. Det innebär att företagets miljöarbete granskas av externa revisorer. De ser till att ständiga förbättringar genomförs och att miljötänkandet regelbundet finns i företagets processer. Miljöledningssystemet hjälper företaget att få bättre struktur på sin verksamhet genom dokumentation. Denna dokumentation leder till ökad kontroll, effektivare resursanvändning och underlättar för den nyanställda att komma in i arbetet.

Föreliggande undersökning fokuserar på företag som är etablerade i Karlstad och som har miljöledningssystemet ISO 14001. Undersökningen inkluderar sammanlagt sju intervjuer med miljösamordnare på företagen. Resultaten av undersökning visar att företag miljöcertifierar sig främst i syfte att tillfredställa intressenternas krav och för deras verksamhets fortsatta existens, den egna viljan har alltså väldigt liten inverkan. Trots att investeringen kräver mycket av personalen och kostar en del är det lönsamt eftersom intressenterna är viktiga för företagets fortlevnad. Om miljöledningssystemet bidragit till förändrad kundtillströmning, resultat och ställning är det enligt företagen svårt att mäta. Dock spekuleras det om att miljöledningssystemet har varit positivt för företagets helhetsbild vilket också har påverkan på kundtillströmningen. Samhället förändras mer eller mindre ständigt vilket i många fall har inverkan på företagen, en förändring såsom exempelvis lågkonjunkturen idag påstår de deltagande företagen att det inte kommer att påverka nuvarande miljöarbetet negativt. Miljöarbetet är något som får kosta trots sämre tider.

Abstract:
Vi har gjort en fallstudie som utforskar hur ledarskapet påverkar och påverkas vid entillämpning av ISO 14001, samt hur tillämpningen av standarden är utformad påstudiens företag. Analysen har genomförts med hjälp av institutionell teori somteoretisk referensram. Vi kom fram till att ISO 14001 inte leder till eninterorganisatorisk homogenisering mellan olika företag, inomsamhällsplaneringsbranschen som vårt fallföretag agerar i. Vidare fastslog vi även enparadox i utformningen av ISO 14001-systemet hos företaget; otydliga istället förtydliga krav ökar chansen för att behålla certifieringen. Till sists kom vi också framtill att ledarskapets svårighet att kommunicera aktörernas rätt att översätta ISO 14001i sin praktik, beror på att ISO 9001 och ISO 14001 hos vårt fallföretag är utformatsom ett gemensamt system. Där ISO 9001 ligger i fokus. Uppsatsen syfte är att bidratill existerande institutionell teori.

Abstract:
Standarder för ledningssystem är ett hjälpmedel för företag och myndigheter att bedriva arbete i en viss fråga. Spridningen och etableringen av ledningssystemstandarder är beroende av flera faktorer. I och med lanseringen av det nya ledningssystemet för trafiksäkerhet, ISO 39001, vill Trafikverket förstå vilka framgångsfaktorer som finns för ett väletablerat ledningssystem. Detta görs genom att utvärdera ett ledningssystem som har kommit att få god global spridning och etablering, miljöledningssystemet ISO 14001. Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda vilka framgångsfaktorerna är för etableringen och spridningen av miljöledningssystemet, ISO 14001, för att sedan se om dessa går att applicera på trafiksäkerhetsledningssystemet, ISO 39001. För att besvara detta genomfördes en litteraturstudie som kompletterades med en empirisk undersökning. Den empiriska undersökningen utgjordes av semistrukturerade intervjuer som genomfördes med fyra aktörer med god kännedom om den nya trafiksäkerhetsstandarden. Uppsatsen visade att de framgångsfaktorerna som kan relateras starkast till ISO 14001 är dess koppling till ISO 9001, den rådande tidsandan samt fördelar som ökade marknadsandelar genom god publicitet vid certifiering. De krav som ställdes på underleverantörer från redan certifierade företag är också en betydande faktor. Även om trafiksäkerhet fått större utrymme på världsagendan under senare år var inte trafiksäkerhetsengagemanget lika stort vid lanseringen av ISO 39001 som miljöengagemanget var vid lanseringen av ISO 14001. Spridningen av ISO 39001 beror även på regeringsstöd, med förhoppning om att den införs i lagstiftningen då nollvisionen är ett riksdagsbeslut. Den offentliga sektorn tog initiativ till arbetet med ISO 39001 och efterfrågan kan bidra till att ISO 39001 når stora framgångar inom den offentliga sektorn. ISO 39001 har föregåtts av en nollvision och en nationell branschspecifik säkerhetsstandard som har banat vägen för standarden inom vissa sektorer. De verksamheter som inför ISO 39001 kommer troligtvis göra detta för att uppfylla marknadskrav och myndighetskrav. En viktig framgångsfaktor för ISO 39001 är att den ger förutsättningar för företag att ställa krav på sina underleverantörer, något som bekräftades vid intervjuerna.

Our research is based on data triangulation methodology by which we are going to answer the question with a combination of two elements: the design and development in combination with life cycle perspective according to ISO 14001:2015 and organization consider the life cycle perspective when they design and develop their products, in a modified form introducing many new aspects of life-cycle thinking. This Master’sthesis aims to discuss the Sustainability approach through the use of Environmental Management Standards (EMS), the results achieved by organizations that implement and certify those EMS, and a special focus on the current process of ISO 14001:2015 revision and the logic behind it. Revisiting the concept of Sustainability, the status of the International Organization for Standardization 14001, requirements that related to that life cycle perspective in ISO 14001:2015, eco-design, circular economy and its expected outcomes are discussed. The ISO 14001:2015 revision will have major impacts on the more than 300,000 worldwide certified organizations and on the many professionals that work with it. Analysis of the development of a sustainability portfolio within a globally-operating manufacturing company, we came different illustrate the kinds of life cycle work involved in dealing with activities and interests, connecting activities and interests into action-nets, performing life cycle practices, and spreading the life cycle idea. Finally, we discuss implications of life cycle work for research in the field of organization and management studies and questions related to the topic with quality engineers within the organization.

Abstract:

Allt fler företag väljer att föra ett aktivt miljöarbete och marknadsföra sig som miljöanpassade. Många företag väljer att följa olika miljöstandarder som är ett verktyg för att miljöarbetet utförs på strukturerat och effektivt sätt. Enligt miljöstandarden ISO 14001 kan företag införa och certifiera ett miljöledningssystem, som är en arbetsmodell som företaget skall följa i sitt miljöarbete. Rapporten syftar till att genom intervjuer kartlägga de förändringar införandet av ett miljöledningssystem innebär för mindre företag. Rapporten kartlägger både fördelar och nackdelar systemet medfört. Rapporten tar även upp följande frågor: Vilka förväntningar hade företagen innan implementationen av miljöledningssystemet och har dessa förväntningar uppfyllts? Har den kostnad miljöledningssystemet skapat uppvägts av de ekonomiska fördelar miljöledningssystemet skapat. Hur har företagens miljöpåverkan förändrats efter införandet av miljöledningssystemet? Undersökningen visar att miljöledningssystemet medfört ett förändringar för företagen till exempel bättre miljötänkande och rutiner för miljöarbete, kostnadsbesparingar, konkurrensfördelar och positivt inställda medarbetare.

Uppsatsen behandlar miljöcertifikatet ISO 14001:s inverkan på de svenska trafikhuvudmännens miljöarbete. Certifikatet är en internationell standard som intygar att ledningssystemet uppfyller vissa krav samt att rutinerna ständigt utvecklas. Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att beskriva hur det går till när ett ISO 14001-certifikat utfärdas och vilka drivkrafter som finns för att skaffa certifikatet. Vi utför även en enklare jämförelse för att undersöka eventuella skillnader i miljöresultaten mellan certifierade lokaltrafikföretag och icke-certifierade. Studien är utförd med hjälp av sekundära källor, en enkätundersökning samt en intervju med en representant från Storstockholms Lokaltrafik (SL). Materialet till jämförelsen av miljödata har tillhandahållits av trafikhuvudmännen själva. Det kan konstateras att tillvägagångssättet för att skaffa ett certifikat följer ISO:s föreskrifter mycket noga. Drivkrafterna bakom certifieringen visar sig oftast bestå i ett tryck från ägarna. Det är också i mångt och mycket en resursfråga. Många trafikhuvudmän anser att resurserna kan användas mer effektivt på ett annat sätt. Vid en analys av vår jämförande undersökning framkommer att de certifierade trafikhuvudmännen totalt sett har de bästa miljöresultaten, även om enskilda trafikhuvudmän kan vara bättre inom specifika områden. Således är det möjligt att dra slutsatsen att ISO 14001 fungerar väl som garanti för gott miljöarbete inom lokaltrafiken. Det kan i framtiden vara intressant att utföra liknande studier av andra standarder, t.ex. kvalitetsstandarden ISO-9000.

Abstract:
Sustainable development is something people have been talking about for decades and it is something many organizations working with globally. One way to work with it is to introduce an environmental management system that helps an organization to improve their environmental performance and meet its environmental objectives. ISO 14001 is a standard applicable environmental management system that organizations can certify against. 2015 came a new ISO 14001, so companies that today have the old standard from 2004 need to analyze the new set of requirements and implement it in their operations. OKG, which owns three nuclear reactors in Sweden is certified to ISO 14001: 2004. The purpose of this report is to examine the gaps that exist between the different standards and which of these gaps are gaps against OKG's operational systems. The methods for performing gap analysis consists of information, meetings, training, and data collection, some of the gap analysis has been done at OKG. The outcome of the gap analysis shows that it is not only the standard's structure and composition that has changed. Many new requirements have been added and it has become tougher demands on top management's commitment and dedication to the organization's environmental management system. Some requirements have similar structure in the old and new standard. Other demands have however been given a more detailed design in the new standard. Discussions are ongoing on how much work needs to be done on the introduction of the new standard, everything depends on how the organization's environmental management system is today. OKG belonging to an industry with high demands already have a part of the new standard implemented in their operations, partly due to the company is certified to the old standard, partly due to other standards authority in some respects makes similar demands on the activities OKG conducts. The conclusion shows, as already mentioned, that some of the new requirements have already been taken into custody in OKG's operational systems while in other cases it has identified gaps where further analysis needs to be done and correct implementation is verified before the new requirements take effect. The implemented gap analysis forms the basis for OKG's continued efforts to implement the new standard.

Abstract:
Climate change has become a subject that is frequently reported in the media. There is an increased awareness and interest among consumers about environmental issues. Therefore, companies try to adapt their business to work in a more sustainable way. The ISO 14001 standard is a helpful tool to structure an environmental management system. It is an established framework on how companies can continuously improve their business to minimize the climate footprint.    This report is based on a company that aims to become certified according to ISO 14001. The company is ISO 9001 certified, and several areas are addressed in both standards, which is beneficial for the implementation of their environmental management system according to ISO 14001. The goal off this study is to prepare the company by identifying gaps in their current environmental management system compared to the ISO 14001 requirements.    The GAP-analysis determined the significance of the gap, by dividing gaps in three categories: Minor, Major and Critical. The result showed that almost half of the requirements is considered as minor gaps, which means that the company with minor actions can meet the requirements. The other half is categorized as major and critical gaps, which will need significant actions and resources to meet the requirements. The result from the GAP-analysis shows that the company, due to the similarities between ISO 14001 and ISO 9001, have a good potential to meet the requirements. To start their certification process, the study presents 18 actions based on the result from the gap-analysis for the company to consider.   The purpose of ISO 14001 is not only for a company to get a certificate, but also to continuously improve their environmental management system. Therefore, the company must develop and increase their knowledge of the standard to fully understand it and there by fulfill its purpose.
Klimatförändringar har kommit att bli ett centralt område som det frekvent rapporteras om i media. Medvetenheten och intresset för miljöfrågor har ökat hos konsumenter. Detta innebär att många företag behöver och vill anpassa sin verksamhet så att de arbetar på ett hållbart sätt. Som hjälpmedel för att styra upp företagets miljöledningssystem går det att använda standarden ISO 14001. Detta är ett väletablerat ramverk för hur företaget kan ständigt förbättra sin verksamhet inom miljöarbetet. Företaget i denna rapport har som målsättning att bli certifierade enligt ISO 14001. Företaget är i dagsläget ISO 9001 certifierade och flera punkter berörs helt eller delvis i båda standarderna, vilket är av fördel för implementering av ett miljöledningssystem enligt ISO 14001.    Studien ingår som en för-analys på företaget genom att identifiera de gap som finns i företagets miljöledningssystem gentemot kraven i ISO 14001. Detta för att förbereda företaget inför certifiering enligt standarden.     I den genomförda GAP-analysen på företagets miljöledningssystem, kategoriserades identifierade gap i tre kategorier; Grön (Minor), Gul (Major) och Röd (Critical). I dagsläget kategoriseras närmare hälften av de krav i Grön, vilket innebär att gapet inte existerar eller kan överbryggas med mindre åtgärder. Resterande krav kategoriseras antingen som Gul eller Röd, vilket innebär att de berörs delvis eller saknas helt. Det kommer krävas större åtgärder för att leva upp till kraven som är ställda i dessa kategorier. Resultatet från GAP-analysen visar att företaget, med hjälp av bland annat sitt kvalitetsledningssystem, har en bra utgångspunkt att möta kraven i standarden. Studien presenterar 18 åtgärdsförslag för att inleda arbetet för företaget att överbrygga gapen och påbörja deras certifieringsprocess.     Studien ger en helhetsbild över de brister som identifierats gentemot kraven i ISO 14001, samt förslag på åtgärder för att överbrygga dessa. För att företaget ska bli certifierade enligt ISO 14001 är de presenterade åtgärderna en bra början. Företaget behöver utveckla och fördjupa sina kunskaper om standarden för att fullt förstå den. Syftet är inte att endast bli certifierade utan även ständigt förbättra företagets miljöledningssystem.

Abstract:
There are a variety of advantages to companies certifying their management system according to the ISO standards that exist. Examples of these advantages are that you get a tool that helps to conduct your business in a better way as you often get into continuous improvements in this context. This report concerns two companies, Götessons Industri AB and company X, company X was acquired just over a year ago by the Götessons Group. The Götessons Group wants all companies in the Group to be certified according to both ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015. The purpose of the work was therefore to develop appropriate solutions to be able to certify a management system at company X in accordance with ISO requirements. This should be done by trying to take as much from the solutions that Götessons used to obtain a certificate and then apply this to company X.   The work also briefly addresses why companies choose to be certified according to ISO standards, but also a description of what a functioning management system can look like. The theories used to create a foundation in the work are ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, Management System and Management System Standard. To supplement these theories, a number of different methods have also been used in the form of document studies, literature studies, investigations, and interviews. The document study that has been carried out is to review Götesson's management system. The literature study that has been done is primarily an in-depth study at SIS on what a certification means. The investigations and interviews carried out are visits to the various companies and related interviews. The interviews have been with staff but mainly with the company's external auditor who has over 20 years of experience in certifications.   The work resulted in the reuse of a large part of Götesson's management system to company X’s management system. Some parts can be transferred without further adaptation, while some parts require a greater adaptation to better suit the business. When introducing a management system within a corporate group, the strategy used in the study lead to both time savings and cost savings for the companies involved. The work also showed that in this case it will not be possible to apply all the measures as the activities differ in certain processes.

Abstract:
This report is written as a thesis for a degree of master. In this report you can read about increasing demands from customers that want their suppliers to be certified by some type of standard, like ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. ISO 9001 is a standard of requirements for implementing a quality management system within an organisation and is built on seven main principles which the organization need to fulfil. ISO 14001 is a standard of requirements for implementing an environmental management system and is like ISO 9001 built on seven main principles. Implementation and the work with the standards are based of the PDCA-cycle. The thesis is made together with AGES Kulltorp AB, a company based in Kulltorp, Värnamo. They supply diecasted and machined products in aluminium and has realised that they are in need to get certified by ISO 14001 and needs an effectivization of their quality management system according to ISO 9001. To be able to implement a standard of this kind, it requires an involved, determined management team and an acceptance that work will be time and resource consuming. The organizations shall also be able to accept changes and the employees must be motivated and empowered to simplify the implementation. This report determines most of the theories from academic work by the practical work of updating the whole management system at AGES Kulltorp to fulfil all the requirements of ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. This report will also state what type of documents and routines that is required for the quality and environmental management system. The report will also describe how AGES Kulltorp made their journey against effectivisation of ISO 9001 and certification of ISO 14001. The survey that were performed at AGES Kulltorp expose most of the internal obstacles that the company must work with to be able to fully implement the management system to the organization.

Abstract:
Environmental issues is now taking a growing place in society and to ensure that companies meet public expectations and do their part in working towards a sustainable development, environmental management system is said to be an effective tool (Almgren & Brorson, 2009). This case study has examined a company's environmental management system in order to find strengths and weaknesses within the ISO 14001 system. The work was carried out using interviews, document reviews and analyzes in which the three main concepts control the report ; "daily work", "audit" and "environmental aspects". The results shows that the daily work looks different depending on where you are; in the production or at the office. The audit examined all documents related to the environmental management system and the study showed that the biggest strengths was the commitment and waste handling while areas such as environmental goals and management review needed improvement. As a result of the deficiencies identified, suggestions for improvements was proposed. The investigation of the routine of the environmental aspects showed an incomplete routine where the red wire from identification to evaluation was missing. Suggestions have been given on how to improve this. The discussion then treated the following areas where the author's point of view is clear and points like the relevance and difficulties etc. was discussed.

Abstract:
Syfte – Syftet med studien är att skapa ett underlag för små företag som ska implementera ISO 14001, genom att undersöka och identifiera kritiska faktorer samt lösningar för att överkomma dessa. Resultatet av studien kommer sedan användas för att skapa ett ramverk till små företag när de implementerar miljöledningssystemet ISO 14001:2015. Metod – För att nå studiens syfte, har en litteratursökning utförts för att etablera ett teoretiskt ramverk. Syftet med detta var att identifiera kritiska faktorer när en implementering av ISO 14001:2015 utförs. En fallstudie har även utförts på ett tillverkande företag för att kunna samla in empiriska data. Metoderna som har använts i studien är intervjuer, enkäter och observationer. Den empiriska data och det teoretiska ramverket jämfördes och analyserades för att svara på studiens syfte och frågeställningar. Resultat – I det teoretiska ramverket och fallstudien, identifierades fem kritiska faktorer; kunskap och kompetens, involvering av anställda, resurser, identifiering av miljömål och företagets miljöpåverkan och företagskultur. Engagemanget från ledningen på företaget identifierades även som en kritisk faktor, men var starkt kopplat till kunskap och kompetens. Faktorn valdes därför att inkluderas i kunskap och kompetens. För att överkomma dessa, identifierades lösningar till dem kritiska faktorerna. Resultatet av lösningarna var att alla kritiska faktorer har en stark korrelation med varandra och att lösningarna var liknande. Träning och utbildning av dem anställda var en nyckel-lösning för att lösa dem kritiska faktorerna. Implikationer – Studien kan användas som ett ramverk och bidra som underlag till små företag som vill implementera ISO 14001:2015. Studien har identifierat kritiska faktorer vid implementeringen och hur man överkommer dessa, oavsett vilken bransch som företagen arbetar i, vilket gör att studien kan användas av olika typer av företag. Begränsningar – Eftersom restriktionerna som samhället har satt på grund av COVID19 pandemin, har antalet observationer och intervjuer blivit begränsade. Detta har vidare påverkat trovärdigheten på studien negativt. Fler observationer och intervjuer hade gett ett mer trovärdigt resultat.
Purpose – The purpose of this study is to examine and identify critical factors as well as solutions to overcome these. The results will then be used to create a framework for small businessesto use when implementing the environmental management system ISO 14001:2015. Method – To reach the purpose of this study, a literature review has been conducted in order to establish a theoretical framework. The purpose of the theoretical frameworks was to identify critical factors when implementing ISO 14001:2015. A case study has also been conducted on a manufacturing company in order to collect empirical data. The methods used in the case study were interviews, surveys and observations. The empirical data and the theoretical framework were later compared and analysed to answer the study’s purpose and research questions. Findings – In the theoretical framework and the case study, five critical factors were identified: knowledge and competence, involvement of employees, resources, identifying environmental goals and the company’s environmental impact and corporate culture. The commitment of the senior management was also identified as a critical factor, but was strongly related to knowledge and competence, and therefore it was included in that critical factor. To overcome the critical factors, solutions to each critical factor was identified. With all the solutions identified, it was concluded that all the critical factors are strongly related. Furthermore, the solutions to overcome the critical factors were similar, where training and education of employees was a key solution to overcome the critical factors. Implications – The study can be used as a framework and provide help for small business that want to implement ISO 14001:2015. The study has identified critical factors in the implementation and how to overcome these, regardless of the area that companies work within and can therefore be used by different types of companies. Limitations – Because of the restrictions in the society following the COVID-19 pandemic, the amount of observations and interviews that should have been conducted was limited and therefore the credibility of the study was affected in a negative way. More observations and interviews would have given a more credibly result.

Abstract:
This study employed event study methodology to examine the role of institutions, resources and dynamic capabilities in the relationship between ISO 14001 adoption and firm performance. Utilising financial data from 140 ISO 14001 certified firms and 320 noncertified firms, the results of the study suggested that UK and Irish manufacturers were not implementing ISO 14001 solely to gain legitimacy. In contrast, the results demonstrated that firms were fully integrating the ISO 14001 standard within their operations as certified firms were able to improve both financial and operating performance when compared to noncertified firms. However, while there were significant and long lasting improvements for employee productivity, manufacturing cost efficiency, return on assets and sales turnover, the sample firms operating cycle and fixed asset efficiency displayed evidence of diminishing returns in the long-run, underling the observation that no operating advantage based on incremental improvements can be everlasting. Hence, there is an argument for investing in dynamic capabilities which help renew and refresh the resource base and help the firm adapt to changing environments. Indeed, the results of the regression analysis suggest that dynamic capabilities for innovation acted as a moderator in the relationship between ISO 14001 certification and firm performance. However, while it was shown that firm innovation aided both short term and long term ROA performance, adaptive market capabilities only aided firms in the short-term at the marketing strategy deployment stage. Finally, the results have important implications for firms operating in an economic recession as the results suggest that firms should scale back investment in R&D while operating in an economic downturn. Conversely, under normal trading conditions, consistent and long term investments in R&D was found to moderate the relationship between ISO 14001 certification and firm performance. Hence, the results of the study have important implications for academics and management alike.

Detta arbete har identifierat fyra betydande faktorer vars verkan resulterat i att de intervjuade småföretagen valt att inte organisera miljöarbetet enligt ISO 14001 standarden: fragmenterad kunskap om miljöproblem
Detta examensarbetes undersökningsobjekt är små (1-49 anställda) tillverkningsföretag, medan standarden för miljöledningssystem ISO 14001 träder fram som undersökningsämne. Syftet har varit att utifrån den institutionella organisationsteorin finna en djupare förståelse för vilka krafter som ligger bakom ett småföretags val att avstå från att organisera miljöarbetet enligt standarden för miljöledningssystem ISO 14001. För att nå arbetets syfte har jag genomfört kvalitativ empirisk undersökning som grundar sig på djupintervjuer av personer som representerar tre tillverkningsföretag som helt frivilligt och medvetet valt att avstå från implementeringen av ISO 14001.

Allt fler företag inser vikten av att föra ett aktivt miljöarbete och inför därför miljöledningsstandarden ISO 14001. Denna hjälper företagen att arbeta på ett systematiskt sätt för att minska sin miljöpåverkan. Rapporten syftar till att kartlägga de positiva effekter som ISO 14001 haft på certifierade företag mellan år 1998 och 2008. Dels har enkätundersökning genomförts 1998 på 124 certifierade företag och dels har en dokumentstudie gjorts under 2008 på tio andra uppsatser och rapporter inom området. Undersökningarna visar att ISO 14001 haft många positiva effekter såsom ordning och reda, bättre målstyrning, minskade kostnader genom minskad resursanvändning och förbättrad effektivitet samt förbättrad kontroll av miljöpåverkan. Företagens produkter har också blivit mer miljövänliga. Varumärket stärks och förtroendet för företagets miljöimage ökar. Marknadsandelar, konkurrensfördelar, försäljning och kvalitén på produkterna ökar också. Företagen får också bättre relationer med myndigheter och bättre förmåga att möta myndighetskrav.

Abstract:

The demands of environmental effects in today’s companies have been increasing more and

more. To be able to withstand customers, cooperatives and government demands the ISO

14001 certification should not be neglected.

In January 2007 the general management of SAS decided to introduce an environmental

management system for SAS Tech. The work which has been carried out is a part of the

certification process of ISO 14001 which will be completed by the end of year 2009.

The aim is to create auditroutines for the company in order to be able audit ISO 14001

standard internally which is a demand to get certified and to keep the certification in the

future. A schedule has been done which audits different part of the standard at every audit

during one year. The purpose of internalauditing is to be able to confirm that the

management system and the defined work procedures are fullfilling the demanded effect. In

order to simplify work with the audits a checklist is also created for the whole standard.

The auditroutine documents will be inserted among the documents for the environmental

management system for SAS Tech, this´ll later on be certified externally of Bureau Veritas.

The purpose of this project work is to evaluate and update Saab Training Systems’ environmental objectives and to propose recommendations for its continuing environmental work. Since the company is ISO 14001 certified the work is based on that standard. To be able to update the objectives and propose new ones; the environmental aspects where first updated.   The results of the work are; an evaluation of the company’s current environmental objectives, new environmental aspects, new environmental objectives and some suggestions for its continual environmental work.   The results follow the current aspects and objectives when it comes to disposition but the content is updated. The company does not have industrial manufacturing or other activities that is usually associated with environmental impact but it still affects the environment in many ways. The many differences and additions the results show compared to the company’s own aspects and objectives show that it can be a good thing to look at things from a new perspective.
Syftet med det här examensarbetet är att utvärdera och uppdatera Saab Training Systems miljömål samt att ge förslag för det fortsatta miljöarbetet. Företaget är ISO 14001 certifierat och arbetet bygger därför på den standarden. För att kunna uppdatera de befintliga miljömålen och föreslå nya uppdaterades först miljöaspekterna.   Resultatet av arbetet är; en utvärdering av företagets nuvarande miljömål, nya miljöaspekter, nya miljömål samt vissa förslag för det fortsatta miljöarbetet.   Resultaten följer de befintliga aspekterna och målen när det gäller disposition men innehållet är uppdaterat. Företaget bedriver ingen industriell tillverkning eller har någon annan verksamhet som vanligtvis förknippas med miljöpåverkan men det påverkar ändå miljön på många sätt. De många olikheter och tillägg resultatet visar jämfört med företagets egna aspekter och mål visar att det kan vara bra att se på saker från ett nytt perspektiv.

Resumo: A certificação ambiental ISO 14001 é uma mudança nas práticas organizacionais, a partir da introdução da gestão ambiental na cultura organizacional. A implantação da norma ISO 14001 baliza o Sistema de Gestão Ambiental (SGA) para a certificação ISO 14001, que contribuirá na preparação da mudança organizacional. Dada a importância da ISSO 14001 para as organizações e o meio ambiente, o objetivo desta pesquisa é avaliar a priorização dos requisitos da ISO 14001 como ferramenta de implantação do SGA. A ideia principal da pesquisa é proporcionar a identificação da priorização dos requisitos para adequação da organização em uma certificação ambiental. A pesquisa teve uma abordagem quantitativa e qualitativa, e a tipologia de pesquisa caracterizada em pesquisa mista. Além disso, foi utilizado o método ANP, desenvolvido por Saaty (1980), para análise e discussão dos resultados. Em uma organização, o fato de se conhecerem os níveis de implantação de seu SGA, os esforços serão direcionados em requisitos nas atividades a serem executadas, dado requisitos que já foram atendidos. Nesse contexto, foi elaborada uma ferramenta com a finalidade de auxiliar os gestores quanto ao caminho a seguir em busca da certificação ambiental reconhecida mundialmente.
Abstract: The ISO 14001 environmental certification is a change in organizational practices, from the introduction of environmental management in the organizational culture.

Given the importance of ISO 14001 for organizations and the environment, the objective of this research is to evaluate the prioritization of requirements of ISO 14001 as the EMS deployment tool. The main idea of the research is to provide identification of the prioritization of requirements for adequacy of the organization in an environmental certification. The study was a quantitative and qualitative approach, and research typology characterized in joint research. In addition, we used the ANP method developed by Saaty (1980) for analysis and discussion of results. In an organization, the fact that they met the deployment levels of their EMS, efforts will be focused on requirements in the activities to be performed, given that requirements have been met. In this context, it created a tool in order to assist managers about the way forward in search of environmental certification recognized worldwide.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Det är problematiskt att implementera hållbara styrmedel i små- och medelstora företag (SMF) enligt tidigare forskning. Miljöledningssystem är ett populärt hållbart styrmedel där många svenska SMF har certifierat sig mot miljöledningsstandarden ISO 14001. I och med uppdateringen ISO 14001:2015 tillkom nya krav där organisationer har tre år på sig att uppdatera standarden. Det är därmed relevant att studera svenska SMF som nyligen uppdaterat sin miljöcertifiering samt att få ta del av deras upplevelser. Syfte: Denna studie ämnar bidra med kunskaper om hur små- och medelstora företag upplever de drivkrafter, barriärer och praktiska implikationer som uppstår vid implementeringen av ISO 14001. Metod: En kvalitativ flerfallstudie på två fallföretag med fokus på företagens subjektiva upplevelser kring ämnet har bedrivits. Dokumentgranskning samt intervjuer har legat till grund för en hermeneutisk narrativ tolkning där empirin har presenterats i form av berättelser. Slutsats: Kundkrav är enligt studien den dominerande drivkraften att implementera ISO 14001 för SMF. Implementering och upprätthållande av ISO 14001 visar sig vara utmanande på grund av internet motstånd och att standarden inte är optimal för företagens struktur, där ISO 14001:2015 inte har upplevts underlättande för denna problematik. Många positiva effekter kan konstateras som implikationer, men det går att diskutera om dessa väger tyngre än de försvårande faktorerna. I takt med att kundkraven på ISO 14001 ökar har dessa SMF inte mycket att säga till om vilket grundar vår slutsats att SMF kan uppleva ISO 14001 som ett nödvändigt ont.
Background:Implementing sustainability management tools for SMEs has been problematic according to earlier studies. Environmental Managemt System (EMS) is a popular tool where many Swedish SMEs is certified to the EMS-standard ISO 14001. The update of the standard ISO 14001:2015 included several new criteria for organizations to fulfill where they have a transition period of three years to update their certification. It is therefore relevant to study Swedish SMEs who recently updated their certification to let their own experiences come through. Purpose: This study aims to contribute with knowledge to how SMEs experience drivers, barriers and practical implications connected to the implementation of ISO 14001. Method: A qualitative multiple case study on two SMEs has been conducted with focus on the cases’ subjective perceptions. Document studies and interviews will provide a hermeneutic narrative interpretation where each case is presented as a narrative. Conclusion: Customer demands are according to the study the most significant driver for these SMEs to implements ISO 14001. The implementation and maintenance of ISO 14001 appears to be a challenge caused by internal resistance and the fact that the standard is not optimal for the structure of SMEs. We have not found indications that ISO 14001:2015 helps SMEs to tackle this problem. However, many positive implications have been found, although it is disputable if the positive aspects are larger than the barriers. As the customer demands are increasing, SMEs appear to have little to say which leads to the conclusion that ISO 14001 can be perceived y SMEs as a necessary pain.

O presente trabalho apresenta um estudo da utilizaÃÃo de indicadores ambientais baseados nas normas ISO 14031 e ISO 14001 em 10 empresas prestadoras de serviÃo de engenharia em SÃo LuÃs, MaranhÃo, que nÃo possuem Sistema de GestÃo Ambiental implementados. Foram utilizados questionÃrios extensos abordando itens das normas acima citadas. Foi dado tratamento estatÃstico nos dados com o intuito de saber o Ãndice de utilizaÃÃo dos indicadores por cada empresa. Analisaram-se os dados compilados e a partir dos mesmos recomendouse a 7 empresas que implementem o SGA, por ter obtido um percentual de utilizaÃÃo igual ou acima de 40%
With the advance of mankind towards industrialization and technological modernization, creating new processes that are potentially harmful to the environment, a growing concern about the environment also comes from mankind. Due to pressures coming from the society, organizations considered before as polluters, start to manage the environmental aspects of their processes in a much more efficient way, through the implantation of Environmental Management Systems (EMS). An important tool to build, consolidate information and promote the improvement of the Environmental Management Systems is the usage of environmental indicators. With the implantation and maintenance of its EMS, seeking its continual improvement, organizations can try to obtain the ISO 14001 certification, internationally known as an excellence standard on environmental management. The present work presents a study of the usage of ISO 14001 and ISO 14031 based environmental indicators on engineering companies in SÃo LuÃs, MaranhÃo, that have no environmental systems implemented. Questionnaires approaching items from the ISO guidelines above described were used. A statistical treatment was realized on the data gathered in order to know the indicators usage rate of each company. The data compiled was analyzed, and from them, 7 companies were recommended to implement an EMS, for obtaining 40% or more of indicator usage

Abstract:
Environmental management has become a part of societal life and a dominant issue for every sector of economies in the developed world. However, due to the absence of EMS the Libyan petroleum companies are not able to compete in the international petroleum sector. The rules and regulations specified by developed countries concerning environmental protection are becoming highly challenging. These have posed tremendous difficulties for both the government of Libya, as well as the petroleum companies to meet the national and international legislative requirements. Since 1999, Libya has been transformed by aligning itself according to the requirements and expectations of the industrial nations of the world and has, therefore, in this process of transformation, already become one of the competitive nations in the petroleum sector. The country has started to attract international investment by companies and individuals from all over the world. The change of Libyan economic policy towards open markets and the signing of many international agreements incorporating legal concerns related to biodiversity, climate change, endangered species, hazardous wastes, marine dumping, and ozone layer protection in their system. This has subsequently enabled the Libyan petroleum industry to make efforts to set up some basic procedures to improve environmental performance. This is an enormous interdisciplinary work, which requires a lot of effort. The present work aims to introduce an internationally accepted environmental management system according to the ISO 14001 standard to enable the oil industry remove the prevalent deficiencies as far as environmental management is concerned in the industry. This work uses AGOCO as a model company for case study analyses, which would provide an excellent opportunity for the implementation of EMS in accordance with ISO 14001 in all petroleum companies of Libya. The detailed analysis is based on the cumulative assessment of the current environmental management manual of AGOCO, interviews with some of the company’s personnel and telephone communications with some employees of the company. The analysis reveals the strengths and weaknesses in the concerning EMS planning, implementation, checking and review. Using AGOCO as a benchmark for all other petroleum companies, the work has resulted in the formulation of procedures to be followed by the other companies in compliance with the international standards.

Abstract:

Today many companies and municipalities requires that their suppliers should have an environmental management system to work by. This might be one of the reasons to the increasing number of companies that today are implementing environmental management systems. Care of Haus is one of the companies that thinks that the benefits are bigger than the disadvantages, when it comes to environmental management systems, therefore they have made the choice to work with ISO 14001.

The ISO 14001 standard is deified on the PDCA- cycle. PDCA stands for Plan, do check and act. Care of Haus choose to work with the ISO 14001 standard since it is a well-known standard for the companies that’s Care of Haus collaborates with and it is also well-known within their clientele

Within this report an environmental investigation has been made. Care of Haus consumption of water, energy, transportation etc. have been measured and analysed. An investigation concerning whether Care of Haus reaches the demands set by the ISO 14001 standard, and an environmental policy was also made. The results are that Care of Haus has transportation and energy consumption as their biggest environmental aspects. When working towards “constant improvement” ISO 14001 catchphrase, the environmental aspects should improve.


Allt fler företag och kommuner ställer krav på sina leverantörer att de ska vara miljöcertifierade eller åtminstone arbeta enligt ett miljöledningssystem. Det kan vara en orsak till att andelen företag som miljöcertifierar sig med hjälp av ett miljöledningssystem ökar. Care of Haus är ett av de företag som ser fördelarna framför nackdelarna med ett miljöledningssystem och har valt att arbeta enligt ISO 14001.

ISO 14001 standarden är uppbyggd på grundelement, styrelement och skallkrav. PDCA-cykeln är central, på svenska översätts den med planera (plan), genomföra (do), följa upp (check) och förbättra (act). Över allt detta står miljöpolicyn och generella krav. Standarden valdes eftersom den är välkänd hos kunder och andra företag som Care of Haus samarbetar med.

I denna rapport har en miljöutredning av företaget gjorts, vatten, energi konsumtion, transporter m.m. har analyserats och mätts. Utredning gjordes även på om Care of Haus når upp till de krav som ISO 14001 ställer och tillsammans togs en miljöpolicy fram.

Resultatet blev att Care of Haus betydande miljöaspekter är transporter och energikonsumtionen. Genom att arbeta med ständig förbättring som är ISO 14001 ledord ska dessa betydande miljöaspekter förbättras.

Abstract:
Bakgrund: För att underlätta organisationers ansvarstagande gällande miljöpåverkan har standarder införts med syfte att ge stöd i utformning av miljöledningssystem. Ett vida använt verktyg är ISO 14001 vilken framhåller ständiga förbättringar i förhållande till den enskilda organisationens satta miljömål. På grund av standardens generella utformning är det upp till den enskilda organisationen att implementera denna på ett sätt som bäst passar verksamheten. Forskning pekar på att ISO 14001 innehar en ledande roll då det kommer till tillverkande företags miljöengagemang. Dock påvisar forskare att standarden inte är tillräcklig när det kommer till kommersiella produkters miljöpåverkan, men att företag som varit ISO 14001-certifierade en längre tid ändå i stor utsträckning arbetar systematiskt med denna aspekt. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur miljöhänsyn utformas och implementeras i ISO 14001-certifierade företags produktutveckling då man utifrån tidigare forskning kan anta att detta innebär organisationsspecifika varianter. Metod: För att uppfylla studiens syfte har fallstudier i fyra svenska företag genomförts. Dessa företag har representerats av personer vilka besitter ansvar gällande miljöaspekter i produktutvecklingsprocessen. Vidare har studien baserats på sekundärkällor. Teori: Den teoretiska referensramen består av forskning kring miljöledningssystem, ISO 14001 och design med miljöhänsyn samt Røviks översättningsteori. Slutsats: Studien visar på att företag har utvecklade system kring tillämpning av miljöhänsyn i produktutveckling. Dessa stammar från rutiner härledda från de miljömål som formulerats enligt ISO 14001. Vidare engageras personal som arbetar i anslutning till produktutveckling genom utbildningar i miljöfrågor och det enskilda företagets miljöpåverkan.
Background: To facilitate environmental responsibility among organisations, standards with the purpose to provide support in the implementation of environmental management systems have been introduced. A widely used tool is the ISO 14001-standard which highlights continual improvements in relation to the environmental goals of the specific organisation. Due to the generic design of the standard it is up to the organisation to implement it in a way that is most appropriate. Research shows that ISO 14001 makes a difference when it comes to the engagement for the environment of producing companies. However, scholars stress that the standard is not sufficient regarding commercial products, but also highlights findings which suggest that companies that have been ISO 14001-certified during a longer period of time in a greater extent have conducted systems that manage these aspects. Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate how environmental responsibility is designed and implemented in the product development of ISO 14001-certified companies since one due to previous research can assume that this implies individual variances of the specific organization. Method: Case studies of four Swedish companies have been conducted in order to fulfill the aim of the study. These companies have been represented by individuals that possess positions concerning environmental aspects in the product development process. Additionally the study has been based on secondary sources. Theories: Research regarding environmental management systems, ISO 14001 and eco-design together with translation theory according to Røvik. Conclusion: The study shows that companies have developed systems regarding implementation of environmental aspects in their product development. These aspects derive from routines based on environmental goals formulated according to ISO 14001. Further, employees connected to the product development are educated in environmental aspects and the environmental impact of the individual company which accordingly affects the product development processes.

Abstract:
Novas concepções de gestão empresarial têm surgido, baseadas no princípio que estabelece uma política de qualidade ambiental, incorporando à atividade industrial as bases da promoção da sustentabilidade do desenvolvimento. Objetivos: Avaliar o processo da certificação ISO 14001 em uma empresa do setor automotivo e o grau de conhecimento e envolvimento dos entrevistados, com relação ao processo de implantação, implementação, certificação e pós-certificação. Metodologia: um estudo de caso, com abordagem metodológica descritiva, quantitativa e qualitativa, de uma multinacional do setor automotivo, localizada no Município de São Bernardo do Campo, São Paulo. Alguns dos critérios para o estudo foram: certificação em conformidade com a ISO 14001; SGA implementado e em funcionamento; liderança na área de meio ambiente em nível nacional e internacional; com participação junto às comunidades do entorno, no exercício da cidadania corporativa e que concordasse e permitisse a realização do estudo, com acesso às informações necessárias. Os dados foram observacionais e obtidos por meio de entrevistas com os indivíduos envolvidos. A análise dos dados foi feita utilizando o Método de Análise de Conteúdo de BARDIN (1995). Resultados: A empresa possui mais de 9.000 funcionários, 21 setores envolvidos no processo de implementação do SGA. A maioria dos entrevistados possui curso superior completo e destes, 68,2 por cento em engenharia. As principais motivações da empresa ao buscar a certificação foram, de acordo com 43,5 por cento das respostas, a preocupação e o comprometimento com o meio ambiente e, para 34,8 por cento dos entrevistados, as exigências de mercado e o controle sobre os impactos causados ao ambiente. Após a certificação, ocorreram mudanças significativas dentro da empresa na opinião de 82,6 por cento dos colaboradores. Com relação à minimização dos riscos de novas e futuras vulnerabilidades legais e à maior conscientização e percepção dos trabalhadores em relação à questão ambiental, 95,7 por cento das respostas foram positivas. Sobre as dificuldades e conflitos encontrados durante o processo de certificação, 52,2 por cento apontaram a conscientização em todos os níveis como sendo a maior delas. Os funcionários do chão de fábrica (47,5 por cento ) sabem dizer que a ISO é relacionada com o meio ambiente. Alguns dos principais benefícios obtidos, após 19 meses da certificação, são a responsabilidade ambiental, com 43,5 por cento , e a melhoria da imagem da empresa, com 21,7 por cento das respostas. A certificação trouxe ganho para a empresa, para os funcionários, para a sociedade em geral e para o meio ambiente, tendo sido considerada a maior conquista de todas a conscientização ambiental adquirida, na opinião de 50,0 por cento dos entrevistados. Conclusões: O SGA, embora não seja a única solução para a resolução de todas as questões ambientais de uma organização, ele é uma ferramenta muito importante para o diagnóstico e gerenciamento destas questões.
New conceptions of environmental management arise all the time, based on the principles that establish an environmental quality policy, incorporating the basis of a sustainable development to the industrial activities. Objectives: To evaluate the certification process in an industry of the automotive sector and how involved the employees of the company are. Methods: ISO 14001 implementation case study, with a descriptive, qualitative and quantitative methodology, in a multinational company located in São Bernardo do Campo - São Paulo. Some criterions used to choose this company were: having an ISO 14001 certificate; an effective EMS; leadership in the environmental issues; social work with the local communities; and, most of all, that would allow this study to happen. Data were obtained through a survey technique, and a questionnaire as the main tool of the research. Data analysis was carried out through contents analysis methods (BARDIN 1995). Results: The company has more than 9.000 employees and 21 internal divisions involved with the implementation process. Most of the employees are engineer (68,2 per cent ). The decision of going after the ISO 14001 certificate was based on the companys environmental commitment (43,5 per cent ), and according to 34,8 per cent of the answers, it was motivated by the attraction of new customers and markets (or at least retain access to customers and markets with EMS requirements) and to prevent pollution and conserve resources. After the certification, 82,6 per cent of the employees said that some significant changes were made inside the company, such as: enhance compliance and reduce/mitigate risks (95,7 per cent ); enhance awareness and involvement of the employee team (95,7 per cent ). You should note, however, that developing and implementing an EMS may have some difficulties. 52,2 per cent pointed out that the environmental education is the most difficult thing to achieve. The answers obtained with the working class show that they do know (47,5 per cent ) the meaning of ISO 14001. Once the system is implemented, it is possible to realize the most relevant benefits obtained through the certification, which are the environmental liability (43,5 per cent ); and enhance image with public, regulators, lenders, investors (21,7 per cent ). The ISO 14001 certification brings improvements in overall environmental performance and compliance. Conclusions: Although the EMS is not the solution for all environmental issues, it can result in both business and environmental benefits. The standard establishes a management framework by which an organizations\' impacts on the environment can be systematically identified and reduced.

O meio ambiente é o entorno onde se desenvolve a sociedade e a indústria. A relação entre estes elementos, ambiente, sociedade e indústria permeia discussões econômicas em todos os setores do mercado. Em função da magnitude da crise ambiental a pressão da sociedade civil sobre as indústrias vem aumentando com o tempo. A sociedade está cada vez mais atenta, cobrando resultados quanto aos impactos ambientais causados pelas indústrias. Neste cenário, surgiu a norma ISO 14001 uma nova ferramenta de gestão ambiental padronizada em âmbito mundial. Santa Catarina é um pólo têxtil, e as indústrias desse setor têm buscado adotar ferramentas de gestão que possibilitem a redução ou eliminação de impactos gerados. A norma ISO 14001 é um sistema de gestão ambiental que cria metas, assume compromissos com a comunidade em que se insere, trabalha com controle, índices, métodos, planejamento e prevenção. Conhecer o resultado da implantação desta norma pode fornecer subsídios para melhoria das relações da organização para com a sociedade, além de auxiliar na busca de alternativas para reduzir seus impactos. Assim, este estudo buscou verificar a variação do impacto ambiental decorrente da implantação da norma ISO 14001 em duas indústrias têxteis do norte do estado de Santa Catarina. Para responder a esse objetivo optou-se por um delineamento de cunho exploratório-descritivo, do tipo estudo multi casos. As categorias de análise utilizadas nesse trabalho foram a variação dos impactos gerados pelos efluentes sólidos, líquidos e gasosos. A coleta de dados, dos tipos primários e secundários, foi realizada através de questionários e entrevistas semi-estruturadas e por meio de análise documental. A análise dos dados foi feita pelo agrupamento das informações coletadas junto aos entrevistados, com foco no processo fabril e na deposição dos efluentes, na perspectiva qualitativa e quantitativa. Verificou-se ao final deste estudo que as organizações analisadas passaram a ter um maior controle sobre seus efluentes, mais poder de barganha junto aos comitês e uma grande agilidade para o sistema de gestão após a implantação da norma ISO 14001, que de maneira direta ou não podem provocar alterações em seus impactos ambientais.

Mestrado em Gestão e Políticas Ambientais
A ISO 14001 estabelece as diretrizes básicas para o desenvolvimento de um sistema de gestão ambiental numa organização, sendo uma de suas condições a melhoria continua do desempenho ambiental. No entanto, embora existam menções ao assunto na literatura e no próprio referencial normativo, não existem muitos dados acerca da eficiência dos Sistemas de Gestão Ambiental no contexto económico das organizações e da viabilidade económica dessa melhoria ambiental. Com o objetivo de contribuir para este tema e analisar a rentabilidade da melhoria ambiental, nessa dissertação foi aplicada uma análise custobenefício retrospectiva ao sistema de gestão ambiental do Oceanário de Lisboa (uma organização certificada com a ISO 14001 desde 2003), mais especificamente das medidas aplicadas para reduzir os consumos de água e energia. Essa analise contabiliza os custos dos investimentos e os benefícios derivados da poupança de água e energia durante o período 2003-2012, e analisa a relação entre esses investimentos, os consumos correspondentes e o seu aumento ou a sua redução. Para esse fim, foi efetuada uma pesquisa bibliográfica que abrangeu artigos científicos, livros e relatórios institucionais para a parte teórica da tese, e quatro análises dos dados fornecidos pelo Oceanário de Lisboa. Cada uma das análises representa uma opção: investimento em medidas de redução de água e energia (opção real), nenhum investimento, investimentos para a redução só dos consumos de água e investimentos para a redução só dos consumos energia. O trabalho permitiu conhecer que as opção mais rentáveis e económica é a opção real, na que medidas de redução dos consumos de água e energia são aplicadas.
ISO 14001 establishes the basic guidelines for the development of an environmental management system in an organization, being one of its conditions the continuous improvement of the environmental performance of the organization. However, although there are some references to the subject in the literature and in the standard itself, there are only few data about the effectiveness of the standard in the economic framework of companies, which ends up reflected in a lack of information on the revenues from the system implementation. In order to clarify this issue, this work has executed a retrospective cost-benefit analysis on the investments to reduce water and energy consumption in the Oceanário de Lisboa, a company certified with ISO 14001 since 2003. Using investment costs and benefits from saving operating costs, this analysis studies four different options: the actual one, in which water and energy consumption reduction measures were applied, a second option in which no investments were made, a third option in which only water consumption reduction measures were taken, and a fourth option in which only energy consumption reduction measures were applied. To this end, an academic research was also performed using academic papers, books and institutional reports to cover the theoretic part of the thesis, and the analysis was performed using the data provided by the Oceanário de Lisboa for the period 2003-2012. The work allowed to confirm that the most cost-effective option was the actual one in which energy and water consumption reduction measures were applied.

This diploma thesis deals with creation of environmental management system according to standard ISO 14001:2016 in a manufacturing plant. The theoretical part of the thesis describes the development of ecology worldwide, including its relation to industry, mandatory legislative requirements for an enterprise with the aspect of environmental protection, description of the systems EMAS and ISO 14001: 2016 and the comparison of their requirements. Finally, the theoretical part includes the introduction of the company in which the practical part of the work was implemented. The practical part of the thesis describes the requirements of individual chapters of ISO 14001: 2016 and they are compared with the actual state of company. Subsequently, the author of the thesis created all required documentation for the missing parts of the standard (e.g. environmental policy, environmental aspects, binding obligations of the company and others). This documentation should be implemented by the company in all its departments for successful certification according to ISO 14001: 2016.

Abstract:
Hundreds of thousands of organizations have chosen to boost their competitive position by demonstrating compliance to the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System standard. In order for these standards to become credible policy options, they must ensure the capacity to build an industrial morality and to institutionalize responsibility. Relying on a series of in-depth interviews with environmental auditors, this dissertation contributes to a deeper empirical understanding of these regulatory instruments by, first, exploring how the adoption of an EMS promotes self-regulatory capacity and contributes toward effective environmental protection, and second, discussing the limitations of its accountability structure and the threats to the credibility of the standard. This project highlights several misconceptions associated with the role of ISO 14001, and explains why both public and private sectors hold conflicting and inappropriate expectations regarding the certification process. According to the environmental auditors interviewed, the standard has helped thousands of committed organizations to effectively improve their self-regulatory capacity as well as their environmental performance. Yet, organizations with no intrinsic motivation can take advantage of the flexibility granted by the standard and the limitations of the conformity assessment process, to obtain an empty environmental certificate. ISO 14001 is a process standard that can help both â environmental leaders and laggardsâ , but that cannot differentiate organizations based on their level of environmental performance. Because of that, ISO 14001 is increasingly perceived as a socially unacceptable certification system. This project concludes that ISO 14001 is a double edge regulatory instrument that aims both to foster self-regulatory powers, and to act as a market signaling agent. The problem lies in the fact that these two facets of the standard are actually detrimental to each other, perpetuating a cycle that contributes to the discredit of the standard and of the auditing community. In the future, ISO 14001 needs to adjust its non-prescriptive nature and its accountability mechanism, to the character of the organizations seeking certification. In alternative, a new generation of certification programs is emerging, building upon the ISO 14001 standard with an extra layer of requirements, and with a more meaningful role for the environmental auditor.

Includes bibliographical references.
ISO 14001's increasing importance in trade considerations and growing status within regulatory policies means that eventually, few organizations of any size and in any country will be able to ignore it. But does the standard discriminate against the Developing World? Is it accurate to measure the success a country has had in implementing ISO 14001 without taking its size and wealth into account? Are critics of the standard missing the point? This paper examines these questions from the South African perspective and proposes a new method to measure the extent of ISO 14001 acceptance between countries of differing population and economic output.
