The article substantiates the relationship between environmental safety and energy efficiency – as the main components on the way to sustainable development of society. The existing approaches to defining the essence of environmental safety are considered, its characteristic features are detailed, the basic practical principles of its provision are substantiated, and promising directions for the further development of the international environmental safety system are shown. The general scheme of the organization of the ecological safety system in the normal state of the environment is presented, which should be based on three components: control, regulation and implementation of safety measures. It is shown that maximum efforts should be directed to making management decisions based on the analysis of existing risks and forecasting new potential threats, which are an integral part of human activity. An important stage in a productive management system is the use of the best available technologies, which does not require strict regulation of activities and provides the freedom to choose ways to achieve this goal, based on the latest technological and technological solutions. organizational developments and their successful combination. Competitive advantages and a number of disadvantages from the introduction of an environmental management system at an enterprise, in particular in the energy sector, have been substantiated. The article presents the main laws of Ukraine in the field of environmental safety, as well as the state standards of Ukraine in the series of international standard ISO 14000. The main stages of management in the field of environmental safety, based on the Shuhard-Deming cycle, are summarized and presented in the model of the environmental safety management standard DSTU ISO 14001:2015.

The aim of this work is to identify the contributions of the Cleaner Production Program to the Environmental Management System certified to ISO 14000. The results of the research indicate that the procedure standardization demanded by normalization leads the company to adopt environmentally adequate procedures; besides, the implementation of the Cleaner Production Program acts as a complementary tool in the EMS, with a view to improving environmental performance.

Infrastructure development, according to the Strategic Plan of the Ministry of PUPR 2020-2024, is prioritized to support basic services, economic development, and urban development. The implementation of infrastructure development is strived to increase economic growth. However, non-compliance with quality standards is still a problem in infrastructure development. One of the quality standards that is often overlooked is the environmental management system to ensure environmental quality in construction projects. There is a need for environmental management on a project that runs according to the standards planned and the importance of implementing environmental management in the project. Therefore, a detailed study is needed in identifying and analyzing the implementation of the environmental management system and the constraints on its implementation in construction projects obtained by scientific questionnaire method and observation with contractor employees as internal parties and construction management consultant employees and owners as external parties in a construction project in Jakarta. The data were analyzed by using statistical tests with multiple linear regression, seeing its application in the field, and analyzing supporting documents. The clauses that are considered in the ISO 14001:2015 environmental management system are clauses 4-10. The results of the analysis show that clause 5 is the clause with the highest application effect with a regression coefficient of 0.967. Factors that become obstacles and need special attention in this project are clauses 4, 6, and 10.

Companies constantly thrive to enhance their performance in order to achieve their environmental, social, and economic goals. One way to achieve these goals is to integrate some effective management tools, such as an environmental management system (EMS), that can support sustainable development and value creation. Based on the literature, in this study some EMS integration dimensions were identified that can be used to assess its influence on business performance. The study was conducted on SMEs listed on the AeRO-Bucharest Stock Exchange that voluntary apply the ISO 14001 EMS, using a quantitative approach. To assess the EMS integration score, principal component analysis was used. Using logistic regression analysis, business performance probability (quantified by return on assets) was estimated for each company included in the final sample. Fuzzy logic was further used for modelling the influence of EMS integration on business performance probability. The research results showed that EMS integration has different effects on business performance probability, considering the influence of activity field and environmental management experience. This research assertion could be extended for all the listed Romanian companies or for major companies at the EU level.
