The environment is directly related to the activities, products, and services of every organization, and it must be managed properly to comply with applicable environmental regulations. This is essential not only to prevent fines and/or penalties for non-compliance from regulatory bodies, but also to improve the organization's environmental performance and contribute to sustainability. This translates into social, economic, and environmental benefits for every project undertaken.
