ISO Certification for Charities

Q: Do charities need ISOs?

ISOs aren’t a necessity for charity organisations, but they can help to promote trust in your organisation and increase your credibility for efficiency, confidentiality and environmental impact.

Q: What are the requirements for a charity organisation for ISO certification?

The requirements depend on which ISO(s) you are aiming to achieve. The requirements for ISO 9001 can be roughly broken down into four key areas: management responsibility, resource management, product realisation, and measurement, analysis and improvement. You will need to fulfil all of these requirements in order to achieve ISO 9001. The requirements for ISO 14001 are similar but have added emphasis on environmental impact rather than product realisation.

Q: How do we become ISO certified?
