Abstract

The study's primary purpose is to develop an assessment of the implementation of environmental measures in the system of sustainable development. The development of a comprehensive approach to cost evaluation of environmental innovations allowed to estimate the total cost of the construction project together with environmental and economic damage, choose the most optimal environmental measures for housing, agricultural or road construction, more effectively organise the management system of the construction company. The article considers the importance of making environmental managerial decisions in ensuring society's ecological and economic security. The study proved that construction as a branch of material production is one of the main driving forces of the national economy in terms of results and one of the most potent pollutants. The purpose of environmental and economic assessment of losses from the construction industry is to determine the cost-benefit ratio of the construction project in monetary terms with the mandatory comparison of results before and after the implementation of environmental measures. The analysed ecological and economic indicators of the construction industry, the relationship between the volume of construction work by type of construction products and waste generation by type of economic activity allowed to justify the need for approaches to management decisions in environmental management. The study results can help integrate the requirements for managing the impact of production factors on the ecological and economic condition of the country in order to ensure the safe use of natural resources, environmental protection and economic feasibility (profitability) of management decisions in environmental management.
