DIN EN ISO 14063:2010-10 EN ISO 14063:2010 (E) Introduction0.1 Over the past two decades, communication on environmental values, actions and performance hasbecome an essential activity of organizations, because of increased public concern and interest, andgovernmen

26、tal activities related to the environment. Organizations all over the world are increasingly confrontedwith the need to express their views, and present and explain the environmental implications of their activities,products and services. There is also a growing need to listen to interested parties,

27、 and incorporate their viewsand requirements as part of environmental communication.Organizations have a need to obtain and provide information about and respond to environmental issues,concerns and programmes. This is influenced by factors such as the organizations geographic location anddistributi

28、on, size and types of activities. Motivations for communication can include the following: the interest of the organization to share information on its environmental practices; a request for information by employees or investors, a government agency, a community group, a customeror supplier, or any

29、other interested party; the need to discuss with interested parties, especially with target groups, a proposed action of theorganization, such as expansion of an existing facility, or siting of a new facility, or the introduction of a newproduct or service; environmental risk management; a regulator

30、y requirement; response to complaints from interested parties; the increasing importance of addressing environmental issues.Environmental communication is the process of sharing information to build trust, credibility and partnerships, toraise awareness, and to use in decision making. The processes

31、used and the content of environmentalcommunication will vary with the objectives and circumstances of the organization and should be built onsubstantive information.0.2 Environmental communication is broader than environmental reporting. It has many purposes and takesmany forms. Environmental commun

32、ication can be ad hoc or planned. An example of ad hoc communicationoccurs when a facility manager attends a community event and answers questions. Planned communicationcan cover the range from limited to full participation of interested parties as shown below.a) One-way communication occurs when th

33、e organization distributes information, for example when anorganization issues an environmental report with no opportunity for questions or discussion.b) Two-way communication occurs with an exchange of information and ideas among the organization andinterested parties.c) In participatory decision-m

34、aking, including effective feedback that affects the organization and/or the localcommunity, an organization collaborates with interested parties.0.3 Engagement with interested parties provides an opportunity for an organization to learn their issues andconcerns; it can lead to knowledge being gaine

35、d by both sides and can influence opinions and perceptions.When properly done, any particular approach can be successful and satisfy the needs of the organization andinterested parties. In some cases, understanding the communication pattern/behaviour of each interested party(or target group) is also

36、 important in environmental communications. The most effective environmentalcommunication process involves ongoing contact by the organization with internal and external interestedparties, as part of the organizations overall communications strategy.DIN EN ISO 14063:2010-10 EN ISO 14063:2010 (E) 4Fi

37、gure 1 shows the interrelationships and flow of environmental communication.0.4 Environmental communication often results in many benefits, such as assisting interested parties in understanding an organizations environmental commitments, policies andperformance, providing inputs/suggestions for impr

38、oving the environmental performance of an organizations activities,products and services, and progress toward sustainability, improving understanding of interested parties needs and concerns to foster trust and dialogue, promoting an organizations environmental credentials, achievements and performa

41、el of environmental awareness to support an environmentally responsibleculture and values within the organization, addressing interested parties concerns and complaints about operational and emergency environmentalhazards, enhancing interested parties perceptions of the organization, and increasing

42、business support and shareholder confidence.Environmental communication is one of the crucial issues to be dealt with by any organization, with or withoutan environmental management system (EMS) in place. Environmental communication is more than a questionof organization and management, it relates t

43、o organization values as well. To ensure successful communicationprocesses, it is important for the organization to consider itself a responsible partner within society and toaddress the environmental expectations of interested parties.DIN EN ISO 14063:2010-10 EN ISO 14063:2010 (E) 61ScopeThis Inter

44、national Standard gives guidance to an organization on general principles, policy, strategy andactivities relating to both internal and external environmental communication. It utilizes proven and well-established approaches for communication, adapted to the specific conditions that exist in environ

It is applicable to all organizations regardless of their size, type, location, structure, activities,products and services, and whether or not they have an environmental management system in place.This International Standard is not intended for use as a specification standard f
