The cost of implementing <span style=\"color: #88ac2e;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imsm.com\/ca\/iso-14001\/\">ISO 14001<\/a><\/span> will always vary depending on a few factors, namely:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The size of your organisation<\/li>\n<li>Your industry<\/li>\n<li>The complexity of your processes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>But that&#8217;s probably not exactly the answer you were looking for, so let&#8217;s break down what the costs could entail.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"u-TextAlignNone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.imsm.com\/resources\/guide-to-iso-14001?_gl=1*1ai7uxu*_ga*NjM1NDUxMzIuMTY3NTY4NTM5Mg..*_ga_3D8T6ZJS4B*MTY4OTY3MzAwNy4zODIuMS4xNjg5Njc3Nzk2LjQ4LjAuMA..\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-Image\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.imsm.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2023\/01\/ISO-14001-Guide-Download.png\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<h2>Resource planning<\/h2>\n<p>Implementing and maintaining an environmental management system takes time and resources. While it depends on your organization&#8217;s size and complexity, the ISO certification process usually takes three to six months.<\/p>\n<p>The nature of <span style=\"color: #88ac2e;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imsm.com\/ca\/iso-14001\/\">ISO 14001<\/a><\/span> focuses on employee participation, including people at all levels of the company, including those in leadership positions, so you&#8217;ll need to plan and allocate time and resources alongside your employee&#8217;s normal duties. The frequency of your surveillance audits will vary depending on your number of employees and the perceived environmental risk of your business processes, so make sure you also plan the resources needed for these audits.<\/p>\n<h2>Training courses<\/h2>\n<p>This cost depends on the type of course and the provider, but prices typically range from \u00a3300 for a classroom-based course on the requirements of <span style=\"color: #88ac2e;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imsm.com\/ca\/iso-14001\/\">ISO 14001<\/a><\/span> to \u00a31600 for a three-day course on becoming an internal auditor. Training courses are a great way to ensure your employees are more efficient in carrying out their duties and should therefore place less stress on resources further down the line. Our internal auditor training sessions are CPD certified and are only delivered by consultants with more than five years of experience conducting third-party audits.<\/p>\n<h2>Employing a consultant<\/h2>\n<p>If time and resources are already short, employing an <span style=\"color: #88ac2e;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.imsm.com\/ca\/iso-14001\/\">ISO 14001<\/a><\/span> consultant will help reduce the string of initial implementation.
