In the vast majority of scientific publications, attention is focused on the need for periodic evaluation of the economic security of the enterprise, which should provide the necessary information about its current state with the possibility of making corrections in the course of implementing security measures. Such a situation is problematic in three points: firstly, such a result does not allow security subjects to develop and implement preventive solutions; secondly, only the state of security objects is subject to evaluation, without characterizing the effectiveness of the subjects’ actions; the level of individual functional components is determined fragmentarily, which complicates the development of targeted security programs. The purpose of the study is a critical review of the existing developments in the evaluation of the personnel security management of the enterprise, followed by the justification of its own theoretical and methodological approach. The methods of induction and deduction, comparison and systematization were used to form the principles of the enterprise’s personnel security management — when studying existing approaches to the evaluation of the enterprise’s economic security management; synthesis and analysis — to establish additional coefficients, which makes it possible to calculate the integral indicator; expert survey — to determine the list of primary evaluation indicators; morphological analysis — to specify the values of the content of each interval within the rating scale; graphic — for visual representation of theoretical and methodical material; abstract-logical — for theoretical generalizations and research conclusions. An attempt was made to solve the problematic points through the development of a theoretical-practical approach to the evaluation of the personnel security management of the enterprise, which is based on a combination of known approaches and the best practice of their application. Preference is given to the combination of resourcefunctional (allows you to calculate an integral indicator and, if necessary, monitor the change in the level of group indicators and each primary indicator separately), expert (enables the assessment of certain phenomena and processes in relation to each specific security situation by several, including independent, specialists) and target (creates conditions for maintaining flexibility in managerial influence through the definition and possibility of adjusting goals, and subsequently establishing the level of their achievement) approaches. The author’s position is distinguished by its focus on establishing the level of achievement of operational, tactical and strategic goals based on the experts’ definition of six groups of indicators. The developed theoretical and methodological approach can be considered effective due to the assessment of specific needs in continuous mode, i.e. responding in a timely manner to the informational needs of security subjects regarding the implementation of security measures.
