Industrial activity, transport produce pollutants that degrade the environment with long-term devastating effects on humanity. The establishment and implementation of the legislative aims to reduce / balance the effects of pollution. Implementation of appropriate solutions in combating pollution is based on: - reliable information on the environmental impact agents; - implementation to the economic agents of monitoring system / rapid response to the detection of trends on emissions growth 1. The main information on the polluting agents are laboratory tests; according to these information resources are allocated. The degree of confidence in the information depends on the internal / external system of checks of the laboratory. Accreditation by an internationally recognized body gives maximum confidence in quality tests conducted by a laboratory. 2. Economic agents are obliged by law to maintain control of environmental issues. Confidence in implementing an effective environmental monitoring system is the result of environmental factors on reducing / maintaining emissions within legal boundaries. Environmental certification system implemented by the economic agents by a recognized body provides confidence in the application of best prevention solutions. Resources needed on accreditation of laboratories / certification systems implemented by economic agents are preventive actions, representing about 30% of the resources allocated to corrective actions (actions compulsory environmental incidents).AccreditationCertificationPollutionResourcesIncrease the quality and reduce the costs of environmental management through accreditation and certificationSymposium Proceedings
