ENVIRONMENTSurroundings in which an organization operates, including air, water, land, natural resources, flora,

fauna, humans, and their interrelation.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTAny change to the environment, whether adverse or

beneficial, wholly or partially resulting from an organization's activities, products or services.


4.3.1 Environmental Aspects

• Procedure to identify aspects of activities, products, services.

• Aspects that can be controlled or influenced. • Determine aspects that have or can have

significant impacts.• Consider significant aspects in setting

environmental objectives.• Keep information up to date


4.3.2 Legal & Other Requirements

• Procedure to identify and access• Applicable to environmental aspects


4.3.3 Objectives and Targets

ISO 14001 - Continuous Improvement Cycle


Athens Plant EMS Policy

We are committed to maintaining an Environmental Management System that

promotes continual improvement, prevention of pollution, and compliance with applicable

legislation, regulations and other requirements pertinent to our operations. We will strive to use energy efficiently, to reduce, reuse, and

recycle materials in an effort to conserve natural resources, and minimize wastes from

the manufacture of superchargers.

Impact - Evaluation Criteria

Evaluate manufacturing processes or equipment with respect to impact. A machine with a total of 10 or greater indicates a significant process. A category total of >50 indicates a significant environmental category. 0 = No negative impact - An event beyond Eaton's control or authority to manage, or a process that improves environment. Ex. - Water taken from river returned cleaner.

1 = Insignificant impact - No measurable effect or cost.

2 = Low impact - Minimal consequence or cost. Ex. A spilled chemical that is easily and quickly cleaned up.

3 = Moderate Impact - Activity with moderate cost of management, containment or clean-up.

4 = High Impact - Causes measurable and sustained harm to the environment or has high cost to manage. Ex. – extremely hazardous material.

Uncovering Supporting Activities

1. Review process maps

2. Conduct personnel interviews• Determining time spent on supporting activities• Questions to ask....

– What activities are you involved in?– How much of your time does each activity

require?– How does the level of resource use or

waste generation effect each activity?


Processing a Drum of Hazardous Waste

1. Supervisor stages & labels drum for collection2. Operator fills & secures drum

4. Environmental manager arranges for disposal5. Environmental manager supervises pick-up & processes paperwork returned from contractor

3. Transfer of drum from accumulation point to designated storage point


• Disposal $50• Handling $47• Ink & thinner $819• Waste management $369• Hazardous waste tax $16

Total cost per drum $1,301

Full Aspect Cost - Drum of Waste Ink


1. Identify direct aspect cost categories

3. Go for quantity over quality

4. Build on the ideas of others

BrainwritingBrainwriting

Eliminates inhibition; fear of expressing ideas

Works well with teams that are less familiar with one another

Ground rules becomes less significant

Does not allow for open discussion


Bubble-up/Bubble-downUse a forced pair comparison Provokes extensive team discussion No alternative is completely eliminated Quick wins and crown jewels bubble upMulti-voting Team members allotted a certain number of votes More time efficient prioritization Requires upfront research by team members Produces “winners” and “losers”
