Crime is a phenomenon that has a high cost for society and seriously threatens the normal development of society as well as personal inviolability, the property, honour and dignity of citizens. This paper presents some basic aspects of the statistical study of crime. It explains the nature of crime as an object of statistical study. The major sources of information are discussed together with the problems of information provision. The system of statistical indicators is described in detail as a way of characterizing registered crime. The possibilities for the statistical study of latent crime are clarified and some characteristics when analyzing the antisocial behaviour of juvenile offenders are also discussed.

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT – THEORETICAL
AND PRACTICAL ASPECTS
The present paper argues again that sustainable development is an objective need of people, which has no alternative. The paper examines a very small part of the ‘man-nature’ relationship. On the one hand, the major achievements in the implementation of the sustainable development are described and, on the other hand, the problems that need to be ...
The present paper argues again that sustainable development is an objective need of people, which has no alternative. The paper examines a very small part of the ‘man-nature’ relationship. On the one hand, the major achievements in the implementation of the sustainable development are described and, on the other hand, the problems that need to be studied and solved by scientists, policy makers, practitioners and others are set out, since this concept requires an integrated approach. We consider that the implementation of sustainable development is the only option. Moreover, its implementation is imposed by the reality because we owe it to present and future generations.

: The competence approach has become an integral part of the personnel management system of organizations. In improving the quality of civil servants’ work, there is a qualified and competent level of public service employees. This paper presents an analysis of the situation in civil service management, outlines the problems of managing the competencies of civil servants. Within the framework of the survey, more than 365 civil servants were interviewed, from the specialist to the head of the department. The most popular competencies among civil servants have been singled out. This is general professional, normative-legal, competence of effectiveness and efficiency of work. The groups of competences ‘management of changes’, ‘self-management and professional growth’ turned out to be the least in demand. Respondents also noted a high need for updating their professional knowledge. However, the problem of knowledge sharing persists, when the knowledge received by employees is better expressed at conferences, but is mostly reserved for personal use only and is not recorded on any media. The set of competencies will allow to describe the labour behaviour, which is required for the successful performance of work in a given position or for a group of similar posts, accurately enough. The ontological approach to assessing the competencies of civil servants will link the task of assessing competencies through the transformation of a query into a set of terms and concepts with specific needs of the project, the planned task or the function performed. The creation of a decision support system to ensure that the competencies of civil servants meet the requirements of labour functions on the basis of mathematical methods will allow the personnel service to efficiently recruit employees for vacant positions in a state organization.
