1. RULES OF THE GAME

The game is intended for one person, but nothing prevents playing in a small group, it will be much more fun.
 
The game is compatible with recent versions of web browsers. Otherwise the game can be slow.
 
A game session typically lasts between half an hour to 2 – 3 hours. You can play as many times as you like during your 60-day access and learn a lot about the ISO 14001 standard.
 
The goal of the game is to reach the final space (Finish) as quickly as possible. arrival
 
The standard's requirements and comments are on this page. A free quiz on the ISO 14001 requirements is provided at the beginning. This allows you to discover, decrypt and become familiar with the requirements of the standard.
 
Having a copy of the ISO 14001 standard at hand (not supplied with the game) is a prerequisite.
 
The board of the game is a city with a car's journey.
 
In the top left, there is a clock showing elapsed time. In the top right,  you have a help button and option to exit the game.
 
At the bottom left, there's a button to mute the sound. In the bottom enter, you can see the total stars you've earned. bleu At the bottom right, there's a button linkng to the ISO 14001 standard requirements page.
 
At the beginning, the car is parked at the Start space.  
 
Click on the "START GAME" button to begin.
 
The sequence of spaces (types of cards) is as follows:
 
  • RISK - threat or opportunity - silver
  • MCT - multiple choice test - green
  • PRACTICE - good or bad practice - orange
  • CASE – situation, challenge and solutions - blue
 
You also have special Maintenance maintenance  and Padora’s box spaces Pandora .
 
Each card type includes 50 questions, and each answer is linked to a paragraph of the ISO 14001 standard version 2015.
 
Each card is shown with the following steps:
 
  • step 1: The back of the card showing the card type, number (from 1 to 50) and the number of stars (from one to three) in blue, white and red  bleu, blanc, rouge
  • step 2: The card type, its number, the question (e.g., "Is the following statement more of a threat or an opportunity?"), the statement (e.g., "The scope of the QMS describes the main company's activities") and the star(s)
  • step 3: The answers (one or more correct answers are possible) with a green emoji (for all correct answers) good and a red emoji (for a wrong answer) bad
  • step 4: The paragraph from the standard and a comment for the correct answer or incorrect answer
 
The car starts and arrives at the Risk space. risk
 
The card number is random. Depending on the question's difficulty, the stars are one, two or three.
 
If you guess the correct answer, the car moves forward as many spaces as there are stars on the question.
 
If you don't guess the correct answer (or answered partially) the car stalls on the same space, and the next card will be of the same type.
 
If you land on a Maintenance maintenance or a Pandora's box space Pandora , you may get lucky or unlucky. From the car's trunk or Pandora's box comes a random luck or misfortune card. If luck is on your side, you get Joker card joker, and your car moves forward 3 spaces. If misfortune strikes bad luck, your car moves back 3 spaces.
 
If a second person is with you and has printed this booklet, they can increase the game's difficulty by asking questions like:
 
  • What is the clause and sub-clause (paragraph) of the standard related to the question?
  • Can you provide an example from your department related to this question?
 
When you reach the Finish space for the first time, you can download your IZOGOOD® 14001 game participation Certificate. certificate 
 
You can also view your game results:
  • number of stars earned bleu
  • date and time each time you played date
  • time spent 
 
The educational objectives of the game are to allow each player to:
 
  • identify whether a risk is more of a threat or an opportunity
  • enhance their knowledge of the standard's requirements through multiple choice tests (MCTs)
  • guess whether a statement is a good or a bad practice
  • study each proposed case's situation, challenge, and to find the right solution (one or more correct solutions are possible)
  • decrypt the clauses and paragraphs of the standard and to assimilate the requirements
 
Some questions have a hint of humor (even if the boss forgot to say it).
Relax, it's just a game. smiley
 
A bias is inevitable regarding the “correct answers” to retain, especially for RISK or PRACTICE cards.
 
Here's an example:
 
RISK 01. Is the following statement more of a threat or an opportunity? "The most important thing is that the company's strategy was established in the past"
 
One could answer that it is a threat or an opportunity but it depends on when the strategy was defined.
 
If you answer that it is a threat, you're right because it's not specified when the previous strategy was developed (a year ago, 10 years ago). There's missing information. But you could answer that it's an opportunity because you think "in the past" means 2 to 3 years ago.
 
Thus, the presented answers and the relevance of the comments presented are debatable; in the end, the truth is sometimes relative.
 
The IZOGOOD® games are created and developed with great care. Thank you in advance for communicating any potential improvement points you've identified via this link: https://www.pqbweb.eu/contact.php

3. CARDS

 

Examples of the first 3 cards

 

first 3 cards

 

 

risk

RISKS

Recurring question: Is the following statement more of a threat or an opportunity?

 

RISK 01 Most important is that the organization's strategy has been established in the past

Threat

§ 4.1

 three

Every three years on average, it is necessary to check the adequacy of the strategy to the context of the organization, the expectations and the requirements of the interested parties

 

RISK 02 The company's context is something that can be taken into consideration (even if the boss forgot to mention it)

Threat

§ 4.1

 two

This is a requirement of the standard and it is unavoidable. This is part of the first work to be done since the validation of the organization's strategy depends on it

 

RISK 03 Trying to anticipate the evolution of customer expectations is wasted time (if the boss says so)

Threat

§ 4.2

 one

 

The objective of the organization is to satisfy its customers in the long term – to understand the evolution of their expectations is a key factor of success for the future

 

 

MCT

MCT'S (MULTIPLE CHOICE TESTS)

 

 

MCT 01 Only one of the following statements is correct. Can you name which one?

 

  1. A product can be certified ISO 14001
  2. A service can be certified ISO 14001
  3. The management system of an organization can be certified ISO 14001
  4. Any organization with more than 100 people shall be ISO 14001 certified
§ 0.1              one
 

 

A product is certified from a technical point of view according to a reference system, such as CE 023 for a medical device, for example. A service, in the sense of service delivery, cannot be ISO certified. Only the management system of an organization can be certified ISO 14001. Certification is voluntary for any organization, whatever the size

 

 

MCT 02 A systematic approach to environmental management allows us to contribute to sustainable development by (even if the boss has no opinion):

  1. Protecting the environment
  2. Helping to meet compliance obligations
  3. Communicating environmental information to stakeholders
  4. Increasing the company's legal requirements

§ 0.2             three 

ISO 14001, like other international standards, is not intended to increase or modify a company's legal requirements

 

 

MCT 03 In the Deming cycle, the A stands for:

 

1. Analyze

2.Act

3. Improve

4. Adopt

§ 0.3            one

In the DEMING cycle, the data analysis is in the C (Check), the support is in the D (Do); Act or Adapt corresponds to step A

 

 

Practices

PRACTICES

 

 

Recurring question: Is the following statement more a good or a bad practice?

 

 

PRACTICE 01 The diagnosis of the organization context includes the main external and internal issues (even if the boss doesn't know about it)

 

Good practice
§ 4.1

two
 

 

Fulfilling its compliance obligations helps improve environmental performance and contributes to sustainable development
 

 

PRACTICE 03 The scope of the organization’s EMS is relevant and available on request (even if the boss doesn’t know it)

 

Good practice

cases

CASES

 

CASE 01 CONTEXT
 
Situation: external and internal issues influence the strategic direction and the overall performance of the organization
Challenge: how can we understand the influence of external and internal issues?
To understand the context of the organization, we must:
 
Solution 1: regularly monitor and review issues
Solution 2: determine the positive or negative influence of each issue
Solution 3: use SWOT and PEST tools
§ 4.1              three
 
All these activities are very useful for analyzing the context
 
 
CASE 02 STAKEHOLDERS
 
Situation: many stakeholders are concerned by our EMS
Challenge: how do we identify our EMS stakeholders?
Solution 1: identify our compliance obligations concerning stakeholders
Solution 2: draw up a list of stakeholders who may be affected by our EMS
Solution 3: draw up a list of stakeholders who can be influenced by our EMS
§ 4.2             one
 
 
On the contrary, certain stakeholder requirements can be adopted and then become compliance obligations of our EMS
Establishing the list of parties concerned and influenced by our EMS is an essential activity in setting up our EMS
 
 
 
CASE 03 SCOPE OF THE EMS
 
Situation: we need to maintain the scope of the EMS in the form of documented information (procedure)
Challenge: what must we do to determine the scope of the EMS?
Solution 1: justify each non-applicable requirement in a documented information
Solution 2: maintain the scope of the EMS (sites, processes, products and services) as documented information
Solution 3: base the scope of the EMS on the business context, the requirements of interested parties and the products and services provided
§ 4.3            one  

 

 

 All these activities are useful for determining the scope of the EMS
