EP05 - Setting Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

This is a written procedure that outlines how environmental targets and objectives will be measured. In order to effectively monitor and report on the company’s environmental performance, it is necessary to consider how it has addressed the objectives and targets set, as well as taking into account incident reports and the findings of inspections and audits.

To determine whether objectives and targets have been achieved it is necessary to define the key performance indicators (KPIs) that will identify such improvements.

For the EMS to be properly administered, it is important that the targets set are able to be quantified, which will assist in undertaking the annual review and environmental reporting requirements.
