700-240 Exam Dumps : Cisco Environmental Sustainability Overview(CESO)

Cisco uses criteria such as facility size and lab area when determining sites for ISO 14001 certification. This approach ensures that their Environmental Management Systems (EMS) are implemented in locations with significant potential environmental impacts, allowing for effective management and continual improvement of their environmental performance. Cisco’s commitment to ISO 14001certification is part of their broader environmental strategy to comply with international standards and improve sustainability practices across their operations

The internationally accepted standard for Environmental Management Systems (EMS) is the ISO 14001 certification. This standard helps organizations improve their environmental performance through more efficient use of resources and reduction of waste, gaining a competitive advantage and the trust of stakeholders. ISO 14001 provides a framework for organizations to protect the environment and respond to changing environmental conditions in balance with socio-economic needs. Cisco, like many other leading organizations, adheres to this standard to ensure its environmental management practices are effective and continuously improving. More information can be found in Cisco’s sustainability and environmental documentation on their ESG Reporting Hub.
