ISO 14031:2013 gives guidance on the design and use of environmental performance evaluation (EPE) within an organization. It is applicable to all organizations, regardless of type, size, location and complexity.
ISO 14031:2013 does not establish environmental performance levels.
The guidance in ISO 14031:2013 can be used to support an organization' s own approach to EPE, including its commitments to compliance with legal and other requirements, the prevention of pollution, and continual improvement.
