Abstract:
Integrated Management Systems (IMS) are becoming more and more important, but experiences may differ across regions and companies of
different size and sectors. The study reported in this paper has been developed using a sample of Italian companies to investigate the potential for
integration starting from an analysis of the common aspects in terms of real motivations (company image, costs saving, etc.), obstacles (unclear
regulations, lack of financial support, etc.), driving forces and external pressures that companies meet when implementing each of the management
systems analysed: Quality (ISO 9001:2000), Environmental (ISO 14001:2004), Occupational Health and Safety (OHSAS 18001:1999), and
even, Social Responsibility (SA 8000:2007) management systems.
