ISO 14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) and Risk Assessment Application in Aquaculture

Bu makale; uluslararası kabul gören ISO 14001 Çevre Yönetim Standardı, standardın şartları ve su ürünleri yetiştiriciliği alanında çevresel risk değerlendirmesi hakkındadır. Bir işletmede çevresel etkilerin ve bunların önem derecelerinin belirlenmesi ISO 14001 Standardının bir gereğidir. Risk değerlendirmesi çevresel etkilerin tespiti için akılcı ve etkili bir araç olarak kullanılabilir. Risk değerlendirmesinin amacı; en yüksek öncelikli olandan başlayarak çevre başarısızlıklarının şiddeti veya olasılığını önlemek veya azaltmaktır. Bir kurumun çevre yönetimi için önleyici yaklaşımı sonucunda; işletme maliyetlerinin düşürülmesi, rekabet avantajı, kamu nezdinde firma ile ilgili imajın iyileşmesi, mevzuat uyumunu sağlama, yatırım ve sigorta hizmetlerine daha kolay erişim sağlamak gibi faydalar sağlanabilir.
