The current version - ISO 14001:2004, is being revised and will be re-published as ISO 14001:2015. The proposed revisions are significant; The Definitive Guide to ISO 14001:2015 has been published to put aside any concerns over the nature and extent of the proposed revisions. It is based on the current available draft with updates from ISO/TC 207 committee members. The guide covers: the reasons for some of the changes, such as Annex SL; an overview of the changes; the current status of the drafting process; details of the proposed changes, with guidance; the proposed ISO timetable; the transitional arrangements; an action plan outlining what organisations need to do. ISO 14001 is officially the most widely-used management system standard, it specifies the requirements for an Environmental Management System. The forthcoming changes will force the transformation of every ISO 14001 environmental management system in the world. Anthony Wilkinson, the FMS Chief Executive commented: "ISO 14001:2015 is not a minor editorial revision, this is a significant restructuring, rewording and refocusing of a very important international standard. The Definitive Guide to ISO 14001:2015 puts the proposed changes into context by explaining the detail of the revisions, and the reasons for the new standard. "ISO 14001:2015 will do away with many of the management system "traditions" "These are significant changes, it is important that organisations, especially senior management, begin to understand the new requirements at the earliest opportunity - they've got some big decisions to make." The Definitive Guide to ISO 14001:2015 is available from the Federation of Management Systems online store at http://www.fedms.org/ End
