Guest Blog Post from the Standards Council of Canada

Canada plays an active role in the development of international standards through participation in ISO/TC 207 – Environmental Management. Canadian mirror committees (MCs) provide national expertise and perspectives to support the development of both globally and nationally recognized environmental standards.

Opportunities are currently available for volunteer expert members to join the following Canadian mirror committees:

• MC to ISO/TC 207/SC 1 – Environmental Management Systems
• MC to ISO/TC 207/SC 2 – Environmental Auditing and Related Environmental Investigations
• MC to ISO/TC 207/SC 4 – Environmental Performance Evaluation

These committees contribute to the development of standards that help organizations manage environmental responsibilities, conduct effective audits, and evaluate environmental performance. Participation offers professionals a unique opportunity to influence the direction of global environmental best practices.

Time Commitment: Approximately 3 hours per quarter, with flexibility to accommodate your professional schedule.

If you are an environmental professional passionate about standards and sustainability, the Standards Council of Canada (SCC) encourages you to get involved.
