Why Conduct an Environmental Audit?
It is useful to think of an audit as a diagnostic exam and operations
“tune-up.” By conducting the exam (i.e., audit), a business gains a better
understanding of where its operations stand compared to specified criteria,
such as regulatory compliance, management systems, or others. The audit will
indicate what needs to be done to allow operations to meet the criteria so a
business can take action and improve its efficiency.
Like other “tune-ups,” an audit should be performed periodically or whenever
needed. In Nigeria environmental audit is required from industrial
facilities every three (3) years by regulation, which shall be conducted in
accordance with the “Guidelines on Environmental Audit in Nigeria”.
