| Popis: | The relevance of the study is conditioned by the importance of proper application of forest certification as a tool for responsible forestry. The lack of integrated approaches and formalities in the implementation of forest certification requirements is unacceptable from the standpoint of the interests of society and the environment. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the theoretical and practical foundations of integrating environmental values as one of the requirements for forest certification under the Forest Stewardship Council, into the management system of forestry enterprises. General and special methods (analysis, synthesis, generalisation, and comparison), and the regulatory framework for forest certification and the quality management standard were used for the research. The paper describes the concept of environmental values in the context of its components. It is proved that system, processbased, adaptive, and risk-oriented approaches to management are the basis for integrating the concept of environmental values into the management system of forestry enterprises. It is determined that the development of processes that cover the requirements of forest certification for environmental values and their documentary support are elements of the mechanism for integrating environmental values into the management system. Such processes are related to: identification of environmental values; determination of the purpose and criteria for making decisions on them; assessment of the impact of economic activities on them; development and implementation of measures for their conservation, maintenance, and protection; monitoring of the state and measures. Procedures, monitoring methods, training programmes, standard accounting and reporting forms are components of documenting these processes. The study results will be useful for improving the management system of forestry enterprises in accordance with the requirements of forest certification in terms of planning, organisation, monitoring, and control. The implementation of the tools and practical steps outlined for this purpose will contribute to the growth of efficiency of enterprises and their competitiveness in markets, access to which is determined by the requirements for the sustainability of the origin of forest products |
