To access the new edition, use this <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.iso.org\/standard\/14001\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>ISO emphasizes that the update responds to growing market and regulatory expectations: the emphasis is shifting from mere commitments to companies being able to demonstrate<strong> real impact and performance<\/strong>. The text also reminds us that ISO 14001 is the most widely used EMS standard and is used by<strong> hundreds of thousands of certified organizations<\/strong>. According to ISO, the new edition does not \u201crewrite\u201d the standard from a scratch, but rather <strong>refines the requirements and strengthens the connection to current environmental priorities<\/strong>, including topics such as climate change, biodiversity and resource efficiency, while placing a stronger emphasis on leadership and governance.<\/p>\n<p>Additional expert summaries (e.g. from certification and consulting organizations) state that the <strong>changes are rather moderate in scope<\/strong> and should be manageable for existing certified organizations to implement; At the same time, the expected <strong>transition horizon of ~3 years <\/strong>for migration from ISO 14001:2015 to ISO 14001:2026 is mentioned.<\/p>\n<p>The practical message for companies is to start a <strong>gap analysis<\/strong> in time against the new version, update impact management including<strong> externally provided processes\/products\/services<\/strong> and set a transition plan so that it is smoothly managed within the framework of recertification and internal audits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The International Organization for Standardization (\u201cISO\u201d) has announced the release of a new edition of its ISO 14001:2026 Environmental Management System (EMS), which &#8230; <a class=\"cz_readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/new-iso-14001-environmental-management-system-ems-standard-released\/\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span>\u010c\u00edst v\u00edce<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20366,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","iawp_total_views":0},"categories":[577],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20368"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20368"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20368\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20369,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20368\/revisions\/20369"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/20366"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20368"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20368"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cbcsd.cz\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20368"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
