1.Prior to ELH certification, a list of criteria is drawn up by the consultant. Through General Industry Criterion 1944(1) the enterprise has the obligation to ensure the certifier/verifier (and in addition the entire company) access to an updated overview of relevant laws and regulations pertaining to the enterprise.U.K.
Compliance with this obligation is facilitated by the Norwegian governmental website Regelhjelp (2), where the enterprise obtains a list of relevant legislation based upon its unique organization number. The rules and regulations most relevant to the industry form part of the general and specific industry criteria (marked with a §), compliance with which is necessary for certification and recertification. Annual update of the overview is ensured through the annual management review (through the annual HSE review).
The list of criteria also contains criteria related to specific legal obligations the organization must comply with.
Examples:
Legal general criterion 42: ‘hazardous waste (and …) must be securely stored and delivered to a (…) facility in accordance with ‘Regulations relating to the recycling of waste’.
Legal specific criterion 311: ‘Waste water will be sampled and analysed in accordance with local regulations and the pollution regulation 15A-3 and 4’. (translation)

GIC 1944: The enterprise must ensure access to an updated overview of relevant laws and regulations pertaining to health, environment and safety.
