Thesis ; no. UE-00-15 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master o f Science, School of Environment, Resources and Development Thesis (M.Sc.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 2001 There is a continuous increase in the number of IS014001 voluntary EMS certified industries all over the world. Even though the cost of implementing the system is very high, still it is becoming increasingly popular among the enterprises. The governments consider implementation of this standard would improve environmental aspects inside the industries and prevent pollution, thus it should be adopted in the country together with the command and control approaches. It therefore draws attention from urban environmental managers and the policy makers, with regard to its implementation process and its implications on the over all environmental performance of the industries. This research focuses on the implications of implementing the standard in Thailand in terms of assessing and analyzing: (a) trends, motives and constraints of industries behind implementing the ISO 14001-based voluntary EMS, (b) the implementation practice and implications of implementing the system on environmental performance within the certified organization, (c) effectiveness of IS014001 as an urban environmental management tool and, (d) analyzing the role of government and other stakeholders in the process of implementing and maintaining the standard. Conducting a survey in line with the above-mentioned elements, the results were analyzed to reveal the impact of the system comparing the situation before and after implementation. The strategy addresses, concerns of the industries towards improving their environmental performance both in terms of managerial and operational aspects, relationship with the government, government authority and the local community. At the end the study proposes a policy framework towards effective promotion and facilitation of ISO 14001 EMS implementation.
