Dole

International Organization for Standardization 14001 (ISO 14001)

Dole has selected ISO 14001 as the standard for its environmental management systems. The scope of Dole’s ISO 14001 certifications also includes the Company’s assistance programs developed for independent suppliers.

Introduced in 1997 by the International Organization for Standardization, ISO 14001 has become the world’s preferred standard for measuring and evaluating environmental management systems in all activities ranging from purchasing decisions to waste management and discharges into air and water. With independent certification according to recognized standards and regular audits conducted by third-party experts, ISO 14001 helps companies in a wide range of industries ensure that their activities adhere to a set of enforceable management standards.
