EXPANDED USE OF SECONDARY RESOURCES AS A FACTOR OF ENSURING ECONOMIC SECURITY

Abstract

The concept of "economic security of the Republic of Belarus" is defined. It is shown that the expanded use of secondary resources increases the level of economic security of the Republic of Belarus, despite the fact that at the level of individual industrial enterprises the expanded use of secondary resources reduces the level of economic security. Expanded use of secondary resources will help to avoid a sustainable shortage of supply, which is one of the main risks for the economic security of the Republic of Belarus. The limited resources with the constant growth of socio-economic needs in society is the cause of exogenous threats to economic security and problems of efficient use of resources. The increased use of secondary resources contributes to the introduction of new technologies into production processes, as well as a reduction in landfill waste and a decrease in the use of primary resources.
