ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL ASPECTS OF ENSURING TECHNOSPHERE SECURITY

The article is devoted to the study of economic and social aspects of ensuring technosphere security. The purpose of the work is to analyze the relationship between the economic costs of ensuring safety and the social consequences of man-made disasters. As part of the study, the following tasks were set: to study existing models for assessing the risks of man-made disasters; to analyze the economic consequences of accidents at hazardous production facilities; to assess the social costs associated with loss of human health and life, as well as damage to the environment; to propose recommendations for optimizing the costs of ensuring technosphere safety. The results showed significant economic efficiency of investments in preventive measures compared with the costs of disaster management. The scientific novelty of the work lies in an integrated approach to assessing the effectiveness of measures to ensure technosphere security, taking into account both economic and social factors. The practical significance of the research lies in the possibility of using the results obtained to develop a sound government policy in the field of technosphere security.
