For some years now, Moroccan industrial companies have begun to integrate the environment into their management and to set up an environmental management system, in compliance with international standards, in order to meet the requirements of stakeholders. The fact remains that this management tool has enabled companies to control the impact of their activity on the environment by promoting manufacturing excellence. On a sample of twenty-two large industrial companies with a response rate of 55%, we conducted a quantitative and qualitative study, which allowed us to show the importance of EMS iso 14001 on the performance and competitiveness of the Moroccan industrial company.

The Impact

The environmental management system according to PN-EN ISO 14001: 2015 [1] is a system whose message is to protect the natural environment. The environmental management system focuses mainly on reducing waste, possibilities and methods of waste disposal, pre-venting pollution, reducing the use of natural resources, and in the context of the transport industry, reducing emissions. The idea of the system is continuous improvement of activities related to the protection of the natural environment - through identification of threats, risk assessment and mobilization of enterprises to comply with the requirements of law in the field of environmental protection. For many years, the transport industry has been governed by its laws. However, with the changing market, where apart from large transport concerns, there are also small and micro companies providing transport services that also have an impact on the environment in individual parts of the transport industry. There are more and more entrepreneurs, both Polish and foreign, specializing in the transport industry, hence legal regulations, EU regulations and industry standards or standards aimed at reducing the impact of transport on the natural environment appear. It seems that as of today, mobilizing enterprises of various sizes to implement unified rules, reduce emissions, oversee waste, implement unified management systems, including environmental management systems, is the most effective method of impacting the improvement of environmental protection in this area.

Management Tool

This article proposes a project to implement an Environmental Management System (EMS) suitable to a large condominiums administrator in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), based on the parameters of the ISO 14001. The tool may be adequate to companies of any branch or size promoting competitive advantage and becoming an aggregator of value, in addition to contributing to the conservation of the environment. This is a case study developed in a condominium management company, aiming the analysis of its practices and subsequent development of EMS focused on its reality. It was evidenced through the study that there are substantial advantages in the environmental, economic and social area through the implementation of an Environmental Management System. It can also be pointed out that the real savings generated by the reduction of water and electricity consumption will have a positive impact on the coffers of the company, and these values could be applied in other real needs that until then could not be met due to lack of resources. The proposed EMS demonstrates that it is possible to apply this environmental management tool to real estate companies with a predominance of administrative processes. It is notable that mobilization for sustainability is still far below expected, confirming the gap between theory and practice. It is hoped that this work will stimulate other companies with the same size to turn to sustainable practices in their activities.

This study aims to analyze the application of environmental management systems at PT. XYZ and know how far the company is ready to implement ISO 14001. The method used in this study is the Self Assessment Checklist for assessing clauses at ISO 14001. Data collection is done by observing the study site and conducting interviews with employees to obtain information at the company. Data processing is done by assessing the ISO 14001 clause with a self assessment checklist. The results of this study note that the value of the company's readiness to implement an environmental management system based on ISO 14001 standards is equal to 50.41% with a weak category.
