Revision of EU Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS)
In view of the upcoming review of the EMAS Regulation EC N° 761/2001, Orgalime has compiled a position paper following the Commission’s stakeholders consultation.
Since Orgalime industries act on highly competitive global markets with complex global supply chains, the reality in our industry shows that European engineering companies mainly opt for international management systems, and ISO standards in particular, rather than management systems that apply at regional or local levels only.
We have provided the position paper below.
