ISO 14001:2015 5.1: Leadership and commitment

Top management shows leadership of, and commitment to, the environmental management system: it is accountable for how effective the system is; it makes sure the environmental policy and objectives are set and fit the organization's context and strategic direction; it builds the system's requirements into business processes; it makes sure the system has the resources it needs; it explains why effective environmental management matters and why the system's requirements must be met; it makes sure the system delivers its intended outcomes; it directs and supports people so they help the system work; it promotes continual improvement; and it supports other relevant managers in showing leadership in their own areas.
