Features: With the advent of the new century, China's economic development has been brought new opportunities. China's entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the upcoming 2008 Olympic Games will bring new prospects for China's participation in the process of international economic integration. Aligning with international standards, expanding international cooperation and exchanges, and learning advanced enterprise management experiences from developed countries have become a common consensus for enterprises today. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) introduced the ISO9000:2000 quality management series standards, ISO14000:1996 environmental management series standards, and OHSAS18000 occupational health and safety management standards in the 1990s. These standards are all summaries of the management experiences of advanced enterprises in developed countries, refined by experts and scholars into models of international management standards. Their purpose is to use the requirements of international management standards to regulate corporate quality management behavior, environmental management behavior, and occupational health and safety management behavior, continuously improving corporate management and promoting corporate development. This book introduces the ISO14000 environmental management standard to improve corporate environmental management. Its effective implementation will guide enterprises to strengthen prevention and control of environmental factors, continuously improve corporate environmental performance (behavior), consciously comply with environmental laws, regulations, and other requirements, improve processes, and promote the development of clean production. This book is primarily written as a training textbook for external auditor training and internal auditor training needs. As auditors, based on the IATCA Environmental Management System Auditor Registration Criteria and combined with China's actual conditions, they should possess the following knowledge: 1. ISO14000 environmental management standards; 2. Knowledge of environmental protection laws, regulations, and other requirements; 3. Knowledge of the environment and environmental protection.
