Abstract

The article discusses the main reasons for the low popularity of the environmental management system at Russian enterprises. The introduction of such a system at enterprises is an important stage for society, since almost half of the waste from production and consumption is not disposed of or neutralized, but enters the environment, thereby polluting it and harming human health. The introduction of an environmental management system is important because it helps to make the transition of the enterprise to a new increased level of quality management, i.e. from the phase of quality management to the phase of environmental quality. As a result of the analysis of scientific papers, the main problems faced by the enterprise when implementing an environmental management system were identified: lack of interest of personnel and low level of qualification of specialists in the field of ecology and quality management, unsatisfactory level of the overall management system and high costs for enterprises when implementing an environmental management system.
