![]() Environmental management and indicator dimensions can discriminate sectors more than the environmental awareness dimension. The results demonstrated that the mean vector of the benefits was not equal per each sector. A novel feature of our approach is the comprehensive statistical analysis of the collected data, which yields robust results due to assumption satisfaction. ![]() MANOVA and discriminant analysis methodologies were used to analyze the 14 most cited benefits in the literature on adopting the standard. A total of 120 respondents were recruited from organizations operating in six industrial sectors to take part in the study. A quantitative method was adopted, where data were collected using a questionnaire survey. This paper reports the first research results that scale the benefits of adopting the standard. This drawback requires scaling the benefits of adopting the standard to assign organizations limited resources based on each benefit scale. The most frequent drawback of ISO 14001 observed in existing studies relates to the cost of certification and implementation process.
