What do Miami, Denver, and Orlando International Airports have in common? All of these airports have implemented an Environmental Management System and are certified to ISO 14001! What does that really mean though? It essentially means that all these airports are committed to conducting their operations in an environmentally responsible manner. ISO 14001 certification shows that an organization has taken a concentrated, quality-based approach to its environmental management responsibilities. In fact, in a past *sustainability report, Orlando International Airport wrote that they had: ✈️ Diverted 1,800 tons of waste from the landfill ✈️ Saved more than $330,000 in electricity costs ✈️ Saved more than $10,000 in drinkable water fees by reducing usage by over 20 million gallons Airports of all sizes have an impact of some kind on the environment, both locally and potentially globally. What impacts do airports have? ✈️ Noise from aircraft for local residents ✈️ Potential to damage local wildlife and habitats and watercourses ✈️ Emissions from aircraft and ground vehicles, contributing to climate change and local air quality issues ✈️ Waste generation Airport safety and sustainability are taken very seriously by the Federal Aviation Administration. The *FAA has produced “Flight Plan 21”, a strategic plan to achieve excellence in its 4 pillars: Safety, People, Global Leadership, and Operational Excellence. This includes plans to “develop and implement a proactive and strategic framework to improve sustainability and resilience, address aircraft noise, and reduce GHG emissions.” Feel free to download our ISO 14001 guide and take that first step to an Environmental Management System: https://hubs.ly/Q02QXS990 *FAA Flight Plan 21 https://hubs.ly/Q02QXTgv0 *Orlando Airport Sustainability report https://hubs.ly/Q02QXQ1B0 #airports #sustainability #ISO14001 #usa

💡 The importance of implementing robust AI management policies cannot be overstated. These policies serve as critical safeguards, helping to mitigate various risks associated with AI, including data privacy concerns, biases in AI models, and potential security threats. ➡️ 3 ways to Mitigate Risks with AI Management Policies 1. Data Privacy Concerns Data privacy is one of the most significant concerns regarding AI deployment. AI systems often rely on vast amounts of data to function effectively, and mishandling this data can lead to severe privacy breaches. AI Management Policies: Robust AI management policies establish clear data collection, storage, and processing guidelines. These policies ensure data handling practices comply with relevant data protection regulations, such as ISO 27001, GDPR and CCPA. They also outline protocols for anonymising data to protect individual privacy and set standards for obtaining explicit consent from users before using their data. 2. Biases in AI Models Bias in AI models can lead to unfair and discriminatory outcomes, damaging the organisation's reputation and the trust of its customers. AI Management Policies: Effective AI policies include measures to detect, evaluate, and mitigate biases in AI models. This involves regular audits of AI algorithms, using diverse and representative datasets for training, and implementing fairness metrics to assess the impact of AI decisions. Policies should also mandate ongoing monitoring and adjustment of AI systems to ensure they remain fair and unbiased. 3. Potential Security Threats AI systems can be vulnerable to various security threats, including data breaches, adversarial attacks, and exploitation of AI-generated outputs. AI Management Policies: AI policies should encompass comprehensive security protocols to protect AI systems from cyber threats. This includes implementing encryption for data in transit and at rest, regular security assessments, and establishing incident response plans for potential breaches. Additionally, policies should promote the development of robust AI models resistant to adversarial attacks and ensure that AI-generated outputs are verified for accuracy and reliability.

➡️ AI policies play a crucial role in formalizing training requirements across a company. Read our new article ➡️ https://hubs.ly/Q02Rf0_t0 A well-crafted AI policy outlines the necessary training programs, establishes guidelines for ethical AI use, and promotes a culture of continuous learning. 1. Structured Learning Paths: AI policies can define clear learning paths for employees, specifying mandatory training modules and elective courses based on job roles. This structured approach ensures that all employees receive the relevant training regardless of their position. 2. Continuous Learning Culture: AI policies underline the importance of ongoing education and encourage employees to engage in continuous learning. This culture of lifelong learning enhances individual skills and drives business innovation and adaptability. 3. Certification and Compliance: AI policies can incorporate certification programs to validate employees’ proficiency in AI-related skills. Compliance with standards like ISO/IEC 42001, which focuses on AI management systems, can ensure the company adheres to internationally recognized AI implementation and use practices.
