ISO Certification for Charities
HOW ISO CERTIFICATION CAN HELP YOUR CHARITY
Do you run a charity? Are you responsible for raising its profile, attracting supporters and recruiting employees or volunteers? Then you should consider our ISO certification for charities service.
Gaining ISO certification is the clearest way of demonstrating your commitment to running a safe, efficient and responsible organisation. The ISO standards can help you reduce your environmental impact, improve health and safety, strengthen information security and deliver effective business continuity management.
Our expert consultants can help you identify the most appropriate standard for your organisation.
By improving your internal processes, you can reduce costs and use your funding more efficiently, so delivering maximum value to your front line services.
WHICH ISO STANDARDS ARE BEST?
ISO 9001
Quality
As a charity, you want to get the most out of your donations and with an ISO 9001 certified management system you can put in place best-practice processes that help to increase efficiency and save money. The importance of being customer-focused is also of benefit. The more you focus on those who donate to your charity, the more your cause will benefit.
ISO 14001
Environment
Through an ISO 14001 management system you will build processes that quantify, monitor and control the ongoing environmental impact of your operations. These processes will help to improve the image and credibility of your charity, helping you to win new donors as well as identifying opportunities for cost savings.
BS 10012
Personal Information Management
A BS 10012 personal information management system will allow you to put processes in place that will protect your donors’ personal information from loss or unauthorised access. By keeping your systems in line with personal information regulations such as GDPR, your donors can be confident that their information is safe with you.
What are the benefits of ISO Certification?
ISO certification for your care business could deliver the following benefits:
- Compliance with legislation and regulations
- Improved management processes
- Reduced costs, allowing you to put more of your donations where they should be
- Improved employee training, development and communication
- Enhanced reputation, by demonstrating your commitment to meeting international standards of excellence.
