• The objectives and targets need to exist at whatever
functions and levels of the organization, and be
measurable, where practicable.
• Management programs (MPs)
– There are the detailed plans and programs explaining
how the objectives and targets will be accomplished.
– These MPs usually note responsible personnel,
milestones and dates, and measurements of success.
– Noting monitoring and measurement parameters
directly in the MP facilitates conforming to 4.5.1 on
Monitoring and Measurement discussed below.
– MP’s are required for the objectives and targets in an
EMS.
