In this blog you will discover 6 insights from 242 companies that are certified to ISO Management System standards.
We created the ISO Insights Report 2019 so that we could share some of the best practice lessons of being certified to international management system standards from ISO (International Organization for Standardization).
We wanted to know “what makes some companies more satisfied with being certified than others”.
So from May 2019 to July 2019 we surveyed 242 organizations worldwide on the value they were getting from having certification to ISO management standards. The anonymous survey was conducted online via the Mango website and social media platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter.
These organizations are certified to one or more of these international management systems standards:
- ISO 9001 (quality)
- ISO 14001 (environmental)
- ISO 45001 (health and safety)
- ISO 22000 (food safety)
- ISO 27001 (information security)
The data has given us some expected and unexpected insights.
