Recently I’ve been doing quite a lot of work with clients to set and monitor environmental KPIs. The actual requirements of ISO 14001:2004 for this are driven by clauses 4.5.1 Monitoring and measurement and 4.3.3 Objectives, targets & programme(s) but it can deliver requirements for:
- 4.3.2 Legal and other requirements eg by meeting client requirements and some legal requirements in implementing the waste hierarchy under the Waste (England & Wales) Regs 2011
- 4.4.4 Documentation/4.5.4 control of records eg KPI records can demonstrate effective planning and operation control
- 4.4.6 Operational control eg KPIs can deliver hard facts to demonstrate control such as waste being diverted from landfill or reduction in carbon
- 4.5.2 Evaluation of compliance eg any legal consents which have to be measured, such as noise or water sampling can have set KPIs set by the regulator
- 4.6 Management review eg KPIs for hard evidence to demonstrate problems or continual improvement.
So, when setting KPIs think about the goal and what you can achieve, rather than doing it for the sake of it.
