Аннотация

This paper explores the transition of industrial enterprises from a traditional efficiency-oriented model toward an ESG-based framework of sustainable development. Drawing on the conceptual foundations outlined by Todaro and Smith, the study emphasizes three interrelated pillars of sustainable industrial transformation: community participation, emission reduction, and resource efficiency. The analysis highlights how internal and external community engagement mechanisms enhance the social and governance dimensions of sustainability. Practical approaches such as resource optimization, energy efficiency modeling (EOQ, JIT, Lean), and cross-departmental coordination are presented as drivers of ecological modernization. Empirical industrial practices demonstrate that energy-saving technologies, digital monitoring, and employee-led initiatives can simultaneously improve environmental performance and economic competitiveness. The paper concludes that the integration of ESG principles into industrial management creates a synergistic system linking efficiency, innovation, and social responsibility as inseparable dimensions of sustainable growth.
