  1. Environmental controlling and the use of indicators

  2. Environmental policy Environmental targets Planning of measures Elements of environmental controlling Mass and energy balances Control Organization Documentation Information Implementation Evaluation

  3. Start Management review Continual improvement! Monitoring/ Corrective action • Monitoring and measurement • Nonconformance: corrective and preventive action • Records • EMS audits Planning • Environmental aspects • Legal/other requirements • Objectives and targets • Environmental management programme Environmental policy • Implementation • • Structure and responsibility • • Training, awareness, competence • • Communication • • EMS documentation • • Document control • • Operational control • Measures in case of • emergencies

  4. Controlling A feedback system combines planning, reporting, status analysis, deviation analysis and corrective measures Planning Status Corrective action Deviation analysis

  5. Input/output analysis • Consistent data • Illustrates efficiency • Evaluation criteria: • Quantities • Financial values • Environmental and toxicological properties

  6. Safe on the road? Which indicators?

  7. Healthy or not? Which indicators?

  8. Aims of indicators • Comparison of the actual to the planned situation • Comparison of companies • Comparison of variations over a period of time

  9. Development of a set of indicators Mass balances and costs Targets Targets: reduction of material losses, substitution, cost reduction, environmental improvement, data compression, presentation, analysis, control, decision making. Set of indicators

  10. Types of indicators • Absolute figures: • Basic data (annual consumption, turnover) • Totals (total consumption of halogenated solvents) • Differences (expenses minus earnings) • Average values (half hour averages) • Related figures: • Relative figures (solvent use per product unit) • Normalized figures (use of halogenated solvents over total use of solvents) • Index figures (trends) • Systematically derived indicators: • Complex methods for data aggregation

  11. Indicators – 1 • Non-dimensional indicators • Efficiency, yield (product per input) • Recycling quota • Material-related indicators • Cross rate between different materials • Production-related indicators • Material input per production unit • Waste per production unit • Plant-related indicators • Energy consumption per hour • Energy consumption per m²

  12. Indicators – 2 • Time-based indicators • Waste per shift • Water consumption per year • Employee-based indicators • Material consumption per employee (in offices) • Water consumption per employee • Emission-based indicators • Actual emissions vs. threshold values

  13. Definition of indicators • Which figures reflect the targets (of my department) best? • Which figures are best suited to indicate that these targets are not being met? • How are critical deviations best measured? • What is the best way of showing who is responsible for a critical deviation? • For which indicators is information easily and inexpensively available?

  14. Example: “Chicken efficiency” • Is the ratio of sold fried chicken to waste chicken • Is the indicator for waste • Is the most important indicator in the organization • Does it make sense??

  15. Difficulties in defining indicators • Two or more different products in changing quantities: Weigh, choose a stable baseline • Changes in products or processes: Indicators are only one tool and have to be complemented by more information • Comparability between different companies: Be careful: you have to know the context • Different data collection methods: Standardize data collection

  16. Definition of targets Targets could be: • Legal compliance • Best available practices andtechnology • Minimization of costs • Continuous improvement

  17. Targets should be • Specific • Measurable • Achievable • Realistic • Time framed

  18. Reports • Frequency: • Standard reports • Reports on deviation • Reports on demand • Strictly adapted to the receiver • Use standardized structure • Include reference values for comparisons • Use graphics
