International regulation of domestic ecological audit.

Abstract

Today environmental safety is an important component of national security. A means to achieve this goal is to create a state system for the implementation of environmental protection functions of the society, which will guarantee citizens the right to environmental safety and a healthy environment. At the same time, in the conditions of European integration of Ukraine, there is a tangible need for introducing control measures on compliance with environmental norms and rules by economic entities, not only by state authorities, but also by independent experts. It is a environmental audit at domestic enterprises as an integral part of their investment attractiveness and competitiveness.

The purpose of the study is to consider the prospects for implementing the international regulation of environmental audit in terms of Ukraine's European integration.

According to the results of the study, the structure of the normative regulation of environmental safety in Ukraine is proposed. This detailed description of the existing international standards of environmental audit and their comparative analysis is given. Conclusions regarding the prospects of implementation of international environmental requirements in the domestic normative system, their influence on the management system and financial results of a particular enterprise are made. The directions of further research are determined.
