Evaluation of machinery-building enterprises activity in the concept of sustainable development

Abstract

The global idea of sustainable development as a Trinity of economic, social and environmental development priorities confirms its relevance at the level of the country, region and enterprise. An industrial enterprise can and should be responsible for environmental performance in terms of ensuring the safety of its production technologies and for implementing social objectives for its employees as a socially responsible employer. In order to monitor the implementation of the concept of sustainable development, it is necessary to develop a system of target indicators by which to assess the degree of achievement of the goals not only at the state level, but also at the level of the enterprise - the key link of the economic system. To implement the monitoring of sustainable development, an attempt is made to ensure the "cross-cutting" nature of sustainable development indicators - the presence of similar indicators at all levels of economic development - from the enterprise to the level of the region and the state. Approbation of the author's technique is made on the example of industrial enterprises of machine-building profile. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
