ISO 14000. Other local standards have also been adopted and there is no singular approach that should be adopted. Arguably, any system that has the desire outcome would be seen
as effective, but a strong environmental management system will have a good framework, and these are laid down in the various standards, all of which have similar processes (Bennett and
James , 2001; Fryxell and Vryza, 1998). Overall, it may be argued that there are four stages to any environmental management system; planning and identification; implementation and operation; checking
and corrective action and finally management review and maintenance. To consider the implementation and continuation of an environmental management system each of these stages can be examined. The first
stage is that of planning and identification. This in turn can be divided into three steps. The first of these is the identification of environmental aspects. The step involves the
identification and enlisting off the different activities undertaken by the organization, as well as their products and services on the identification of the way that they impact will interact with
the environment. Activities can include the generation of waste, general maintenance and even general administration which will use of natural resources. Products are the output that the company sells, service
companies and organizations to do not have a product output may place a greater emphasis on activities rather than products (Tibor and Feldman, 1998). Identifying the environment aspects can be
complex, the environment aspect needs to take into consideration risks as well as that is, for example in the transportation of waste there will always be a risk of spillage,
other considerations may include air emissions, round disturbances, releases into ground water for wastewater systems, the generation of any other form of waste such as medical or radioactive waste (Tibor
