The article gives analysis of the environmental activities of the largest oil and gas processing companies of the Russian Federation (Gazprom PJSC, Gazprom Neft PJSC). There have been identified the current trends in socio-economic development and general objectives of oil and gas processing companies to achieve the sustainable progress, which imply a balance between the socio-economic and environmental factors. There have been presented the factors affecting the environment (natural, deep, technological, recreational, innovative) and given their detailed characteristics. Factors influencing the environmental acceptability of the activities of oil and gas processing companies that are a part of the oil and gas processing complex of the Russian Federation have been revealed, as well as difficulties related to ecologization of production. They became the basis for determining the factors and conditions making an impact on forming the environmental management system (financial, economic, organizational, legal, institutional, industrial, scientific, technological and social). Currently, the integrated management system of Gazprom Neft PJSC includes four management systems that meet the requirements of International Organization of Standardization (ISO) (ISO 14001 - environmental management system; ISO 9001 - quality management system; ISO 5001 - energy management system; OHSAS 18001 - occupational health and safety assessment system). In the course of research there were used the reports on the companies’ activities in terms of sustainable development, as well as environmental reports for 2012-2016. It has been inferred that organizational changes aimed at improving the environmental performance of Russian companies will require significant financial investments, but in the long run they will increase natural capital, ensuring long-term financial stability of the company, which is confirmed by the experience of foreign enterprises.

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.

This article explores the implementation of ISO (ISO) 14001, an environmental management standard that offers organizations that have components of a productive environmental management system to achieve their environmental and economic goals. In particular, the theoretical aspects of emerging risks and the benefits of implementing the standard have been studied. The necessity of introducing an environmental management standard in large, small and medium-sized organizations is substantiated

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.
