Drawbacks of hiring an ISO 14001 consultant
« : 10 Сентябрь 2024, 09:14:14 »
Hiring an ISO 14001 consultant, while beneficial for implementing Environmental Management Systems (EMS), can have some drawbacks. One of the main concerns is the cost involved, as consultants can charge significant fees, particularly for smaller businesses with limited budgets. Additionally, there's a risk of over-reliance on the consultant, which may hinder internal teams from fully understanding the EMS processes and sustaining compliance independently after the ISO consultant's role ends. Another issue can be misalignment of goals, where a consultant's generic approach might not fully match a company's specific environmental objectives, leading to less effective implementation. Lastly, consultants may push for rapid compliance to meet certification deadlines, potentially overlooking long-term sustainability improvements or company-specific needs.
