Abstract: Achieving sustainability is the ultimate goal of any organization and the role of the effective implementation of ISO 14000 EMS towards achieving sustainability is neglected in the current research. Technical aspects of the organization can contribute to the implementation of an EMS. Hence this study aims to investigate whether technical aspects have an impact on the implementation of ISO 14000 EMS among manufacturing organizations in Malaysia and how does such implementation have influence on gaining sustainability within an organization. Type of Paper: Conceptual
