	abstract = {The impact of greenhouse gas and carbon emissions on climate change and more frequent natural disasters in recent
years have increased people's and government's environmental awareness. The enactment of environmental legislation
and new standards have resulted in some additional environmental costs for companies. Every additional cost is very
important for companies operating under intense competitive pressure. Companies operating in the textile sector
undertake the costs of prevention, use and damage at every stage of their production. In this study, the importance of
the textile sector in Türkiye in terms of the country's economy has been revealed and the environmental costs of textile
enterprises have been examined. The study aims to reveal the environmental costs for yarn production, yarn dyeing
process, weaving-confection processes and dyeing-finishing processes separately and to calculate the share of these
costs in total operating expenses. According to the results of the study, it has been determined that the share of
environmental costs in total expenses in the textile company is 3.1\%. It has been observed that the share of
environmental costs in total expenses varies between 0.5\% and 6\% at different production stages.},
