Projects on environmental protection and personnel management have a significant impact on the level of fixed costs and changes in operational risks of industrial enterprises. The most effective implementation of these projects is possible at the stages of production growth and expansion of sales of companies. At the stages of recession, this work requires strict control over the level of operational risk and changes in the share of fixed costs in the cost of production. Improving the efficiency of environmental and personnel management projects requires maintaining an optimal level of operational risk. It is proposed to retain project risks at the planned level by controlling and regulating the amount of fixed costs at the enterprises. Various regulatory systems are proposed for periods of recovery and recession of economic activity of enterprises.

The article is dedicated to analysis of problems and barriers hindering the development of human capital in the Arctic region, starting from the stage when skills and abilities, in particular those connected to digital competences and information and communication technologies, are acquired by future professionals throughout modern higher education. We have presented the results for a target group comprising students of the Murmansk Arctic State University (Apatity Branch). We have carried out a survey of the target group, including via the online GoogleForms service, analyzing the answers given by the respondents. Analysis of the results allowed to identify the socio-economic barriers hindering the development of digital competences. We have provided the results of comparative analysis with the previously obtained characteristics of students of Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, finding both similarities and differences in certain aspects of formation of digital competences of the respondents of the two given regions.
