  2. What is mean by Accreditation • The action or process of officially recognizing someone as having a particular status or being qualified to perform a particular activity. • Accreditation is the process in which certification of competency, authority, or credibility is presented. • Organizations that issue credentials  or certify third parties against official standards are themselves formally accredited by accreditation bodies such as ISO ; hence they are sometimes known as "accredited certification bodies".[1] The accreditation process ensures that their certification practices are acceptable, typically meaning that they are competent to test and certify third parties, behave ethically and employ suitable quality assurance .

  3. International Standards Organisation(ISO) • ➢ In an ISO 9001 (or other ISO standards) quality system, this structured way of delivering a better service or product is supported by documented information such as procedures, work instructions, policies and forms. • The key is to provide all those who must execute the quality system with documented, understandable and workable instructions which define both expectations, responsibilities and actions to achieve the stated quality goals. • Most of the systems include some type of external and internal auditing process which ensures that the system is in compliance with requirements.

  4. ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 are among ISO's most well known standards ever. • ➢ They are implemented by more than a million organizations in some 175 countries. • ➢ ISO 9001 helps organizations to implement quality management. • ➢ ISO 14001 helps organizations to implement environmental management. Quality refers to all those • features of a product (or service) which are required by the customer. • ➢ Quality management means what the organization does to ensure that its products or services satisfy • the customer's quality requirements and comply with any regulations applicable to those products or • services. • ➢ Quality management also means what the organization does to enhance customer satisfaction, and • achieve continual improvement of its performance.

  8. Both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 concern the way an organization goes about its work. • ➢ Processes affect final products or services. • ➢ ISO 9001 gives the requirements for what the organization must do to manage processes affecting quality of its products and services. • ➢ ISO 14001 gives the requirements for what the organization must do to manage processes affecting the impact of its activities on the environment. • ➢ An independent, external body will audit an organization's management system and verify that it conforms to the requirements specified in the standard (ISO 9001 or ISO 14001). • ➢ Certificates issued by accredited certification bodies - and known as accredited certificates - may be perceived on the market as having increased credibility.

  9. Product Standards

  10. What are Standards? • Standards are authoritative statements of the criteria necessary to ensure that the material,product or procedure is fit for its intended purpose. • Product standards generally prescribe optimum levels of quality, safety and performance as well as sampling and methods of practical evaluation.

  11. Product Standards

  12. AGMARK is a certification mark employed on agricultural products in India, assuring that they conform to a set of standards approved by the Directorate of Marketing and Inspection, an agency of the Government of India by Directorate of Marketing and Inspection (DMI)

  13. What is purpose of Agmark ?

  14. BIS CERTIFICATION SCHEME FOR HALLMARKING OF GOLD JEWELLERY

  15. BIS hallmark (AI hallmark) certifies the purity of gold jewellery. • Government of India' has identified BIS a sole agency in India to operate this scheme. • BIS hallmarking Scheme is voluntary in nature and is operating under BIS Act, Rules and Regulations. • It operates on the basis of trust and thus it is desirable that aspect of quality control are in built in the system responsible for managing quality. • The BIS Hallmarking Scheme has been aligned with International criteria on hallmarking (Vienna Convention 1972). • As per this scheme, licence is granted to the jewellers by BIS under Hallmarking Scheme. The BIS certified jewellers can get their jewellery hallmarked from any of the BIS recognized Assaying and Hallmarking Centre. • The recognition to an Assaying and Hallmarking Centre is given against BIS criteria Doc: HMS/RAHC/GO1 which is in line with International criteria on Marking and Control of Precious metals.

  16. Within the standard there are 17 elements of ISO 14001 that are required to be met by organisations seeking formal recognition for their EMS. ISO 14001 requirements are as follows: An environmental policy supported by senior management; The identification of environmental aspects and impacts, and the identification of significant environmental impacts that the organisation may cause; Identification of environmental compliance requirements; The development of objectives and targets, and their environmental management programs; Defined resources, roles, responsibilities and authorities for environmental management; The development of competence, training and awareness procedures; A communication process of the EMS to all stakeholders and interested parties; The development of EMS documentation as required by the standard; The development of document control procedures; The development of operational control procedures; The development of emergency preparedness and response procedures; The development of procedures to monitor and measure operations that can have significant impact to the environment; An evaluation of compliance procedure; Procedures developed for the management of non-conformance, corrective and preventative actions;> The development of a records management procedure; A program for completing internal EMS audits and corrective actions; and The development of procedures for management review by senior management. The standard can be easily integrated into existing safety (AS/NZS 4801 or OHSAS18001) and quality (AS/NZS ISO 9001) management systems.

  17. ISO 14001 in School and Colleges • Schools and colleges: What do they consume? • As mentioned above, the educational sector has been largely ignored in terms of environmental impact, but the environmental considerations and impact of schools and colleges can be great. Let’s look at areas of potential concern to understand where an ISO 14001 project could be of benefit: • Utilities: Colleges and schools are huge consumers of electricity and gas. • Water: With over a quarter of a million establishments in the U.S. alone, water consumption from these buildings will be significant. • Consumables: Again, educational establishments are huge purchasers – from everyday items like paper and printer cartridges, to IT equipment and furniture, sports equipment and facilities services for their buildings themselves – and each one potentially has its own environmental impact. • Food waste and general recycling: With the number of students onsite daily, it is clear that the amount of food and general waste will also be significant, and needs to be managed correctly. • Car and travel emissions: Again, the number of students travelling to campus marks this out as a potentially significant environmental aspect. • In the last five years, there have been a number of colleges that have started their own “sustainability programs” to help reduce their respective environmental impacts, but compliance with a known standard like ISO 14001 could be of great benefit in reducing this collectively huge environmental impact from the sector. So, what benefits could ISO 14001 bring, and how could this be done?

  18. ISO 14001 in schools and colleges: How and why? • An ISO 14001 implementation in a school or college would obviously need to meet the same requirements as any other, and require the formation of an Environmental Policy, which you can read more about in the article How to write an environmental policy. Identifying the environmental aspects that affect the organization and managing these accordingly is generally the area where the biggest benefits can be seen, and we have listed some of these above; so, let’s consider how these can be managed to yield the greatest benefit: • Utilities: Establish a strategic plan regarding use of electricity and other utilities. In many cases, a large percentage of electricity can be saved by ensuring that classrooms, corridors, and other areas are not using electricity when empty. Consider energy-efficient lightbulbs and sensors in all areas to prevent unnecessary consumption. Consider the possibility of solar panels to supplement or even replace electricity use. Consider water consumption, and encourage people to use sparingly by educating with posters and email campaigns to students. • Consumables: Formulate a policy that deals with “best practice” to reduce consumption. Ensure double-sided printing is utilized, color printing is avoided where possible, and printing cartridges are recycled. Educate the students. Use environmental criteria to supplement your purchasing policy – ensure that it is understood that environmental considerations are taken into account when purchasing, and inform and educate your supply chain to enable them to meet these criteria. Read more about this subject in the article Driving your supply chain to ISO 14001 compliance. • Food, waste, and general recycling: Again, huge environmental savings can be made if you can educate your people and supply chain. Work with your food suppliers to minimize waste and ensure that what is left is recycled as intelligently as possible, and that as little goes to the landfill as possible. Ensure plastic bottles are recycled – many students have them in their hands at all times! Again, education and communication of these policies, strategies, and objectives can play a massive part in improving outcomes. • Emissions: Encourage car sharing where possible, as well as use of public transport, and look at initiatives to provide conditions to cycle to work – many state governments provide tax allowance for this and it can be a major health, environmental, and physical benefit simultaneously. • Planning these strategies and programs within your ISO 14001 implementation can bring many cost and environmental benefits to your school and college, so is that where it ends? • Positive outcomes – now and in the future • Implementing ISO 14001 can bring all of the stated benefits to your balance sheet and the environment, but a well-managed implementation can achieve more than these relatively short-term results. In the article How to perform communication related to the EMS we examined the communication aspect. If you include your student base in this vital element, you should see results quickly. Environmental issues are very topical, so as well as mitigating your current risks and meeting objectives, you have the chance to educate and equip the student base of today and work base of tomorrow with the knowledge and awareness to help prevent unnecessary damage to the planet. If that isn’t a reason for implementing ISO 14001 in schools and colleges, what is? • Why not use our free  ISO 14001 Foundation Course to enhance your knowledge of the standard?
