The effect of corporate social responsibility on green supply chain management and firm performance

Abstract

Corporate social responsibility and green supply chain management are sustainable strategies that all enterprises always aim to improve firm performance and sustainable development. The objective of the study is to evaluate the impact of social responsibility on green supply chain management and performance of Vietnamese construction enterprises. The study collected data of Vietnamese construction enterprises through online and in-person surveys, then analyzed the data using Smart PLS software. The results show that social responsibility has a positive and statistically significant impact on green supply chain management and performance of construction enterprises on all three aspects of economy, society and environment. However, green supply chain management only has a statistically significant impact on environmental performance. From there, it shows that businesses should implement social responsibility and participate in green supply chains and practice green supply chain management to improve business efficiency and sustainable development.
