"Impact of International Environmental Management System on Sustainability Index benchmarking for Small and Medium Enterprise"^^ . "Sustainability is becoming an important tool towards our better future. More and more companies are looking into\r\nsustainability as their prime focus. Sustainability encompasses responsibilities towards social, energy, water,\r\npollution and economic factors. Sustainability is the ability to sustain. One of the key factors considered for\r\nSustainability Index (SI) is the implementation of international environmental management system, typically ISO\r\n14001 system. As per Malaysian government estimates, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) contribute 37 per\r\ncent in the gross domestic product (GDP) of Malaysia by 2010.The objective of the study is to understand the\r\nimpact of international environmental management system implementation by SME on sustainability index\r\nbenchmarking. Positive and negative impacts besides concerns for implementing ISO 14001 management system\r\nwere evaluated. Major barriers were identified as training, resources and cost. Recommendations for implementing\r\nenvironmental management system for SMEs include integration of management systems, eco-mapping, greening of\r\nsupply chain and corporate reporting. Implementation of environmental management system has a strong bearing on\r\nthe sustainability index benchmarking. (Abstract by authors)"^^ . "2011" . . . . . . . . . . "Muthusamy"^^ .
