In recent years, many organizations have used management system certification such as the Environmental Management System (EMS). The purpose of present study is to assess the effect of Environmental Management System (ISO14001) on hospital performance. This is an applied (regarding the purpose of the study) and descriptive research and data are gathered through secondary (library) and primary (questionnaires) sources. This is applied and causal. After confirming the validity and reliability of the questionnaire, it was used for data collection. The research population includes hospital staff. This community was considered limited and therefore all the staff were studied. The results were analyzed using structural equation modeling with Smart-PLS software. In addition, the results indicate that three variables of environmental management system, environmental training of human sources, and environmental management program have a direct and significant effect on hospital performance.
