Yu. N. Zelenov, O. V. Kosolapov

There is substantiated the necessity of social responsibility of the Earth users during the development of subsurface resources, trade-off between making a profit and meeting the needs of society. In the paper we expand social responsibility content of subsoil users on the basis of the level of development of the latter. In particular, the first (base) level includes the need for timely payment of wages and the payment of taxes, compliance with labor and environmental legislation and others, the
second level involves the development of social partnership and the greening of production, the third level reflects the orientation of the external forms of social responsibility, its manifestation outside the enterprise. Also we consider the responses of respondents regarding the mining complex environmental responsibility.
As follows from the responses, most of them consider environmental pollution, and consider your company as one of the sources of pollution. All respondents evaluated the solution environmental issues at all levels of government is not effective. Despite the negative assessment of the environment, they do not recognize the environmental activities a priority and do not consider it necessary to spend a significant share of the profits on the greening of production. At the same time, most respondents recognize the need to take account of environmental factors in management decisions, especially because mining companies have a negative impact on all elements of the environment. The importance of environmental factors is evidenced by the fact that most of the respondents are familiar with environmental legislation, the reason for the low cleaner production they see a lack of financial security of enterprises, low liability for violation of environmental legislation and the insufficient level of environmental awareness. From the answers respondents shows that they support the implementation of social responsibility initiative, from which they expect to receive appropriate effects, and strategic benefits.

Keywords: social and environmental responsibility; liabilities; survey; results; ecologization.
