Abstract

The paper presents a method of designing an information system for environmental risk accounting and analysis at organizations. The environmental approach in the field of production is becoming more and more relevant. It calls for accounting and assessing various types of environmental risks accompanying the activity of an organization. However, risk accounting, analysis and assessment are not possible without information support or corresponding information systems. Therefore, the issue considered in this paper is highly topical. Algorithms of environmental risk accounting and analysis are based on the method of key indicators. Using a key indicator-based information system, it is possible to automate the collection of data on events related to the environmental safety of an organization. During the design of such an information system, we developed interfaces of the main actors (user, risk coordinator, risk manager, expert, and administrator). We also implemented a data management module, a decision-making module, and a system administration module. In the long run, the system can serve as a basis for integrated environmental safety management at organizations.
