ISAAC GODINEZ, Cira Lidia; GOMEZ BAEZ, Joel y DIAZ AGUIRRE, Susana. INTEGRATING TOOLS TO ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT AS A SUSTAINABLE PRACTICE IN ORGANIZATIONS. Universidad y Sociedad [online]. 2017, vol.9, n.4, pp. 27-36. ISSN 2218-3620.
A set of tools for environmental management have been internationally developed to be applied to products, processes, and systems of organizations. These tools have as an integrated core idea the management of environmental aspects to minimize the unfavorable risks and impacts to the environment, but if applied individually, the reach is limited. As well, eco-efficiency and organization sustainability are affected. Taking into consideration previous studies conducted, it has been confirmed that in current business management practice conditions the level of development of environmental management is a limitation to increasing eco-efficiency and move forward to sustainable development, which is manifested in the lack of integration present in its regulations, and other systems’ . The objective of this paper is to present a methodological instrument that allows developing an integrated process structured as a sustainability practice. The methodology takes as starting point Model 14001:2015, and is structured in eight steps which specify the regulations to be integrated, the results to be obtained, and the methods and techniques to be used. The methodology can be applied to any type of organization, despite its size and nature.
