RC : 14001 (Chemical)

The American Chemistry Council (ACC) has created the RC14001-V03 standard for organizations that want to attain ISO 14001:2004 certification while at the same time meeting the organization's Responsible Care Management System or (RCMS) requirements. You need not be an ACC member to seek RC14001-V03 Certification, however, this responsible care standard is focused on chemical companies and their suppliers.

RC 14001- Responsible Care broadens the scope of the ISO 14001 Standard beyond the traditional Environmental Management System to include health and safety, security, transportation, outreach, emergency response and other Responsible Care requirements. The RC14001-V03 Technical Standard specification tracks closely with the elements of ISO 14001:2004.
