In 2009, the European Commission has issued a study on the costs and benefits to organisations of EMAS registration. This study has now been finalised. It analyses costs and benefits as well as the incentives and barriers confronted by potential new registrants and it identified best initiatives that help organisations to realise maximum benefits from the application of EMAS, both internal to the organisation and run by Member State competent authorities and/or accreditation bodies.
