CSR implementation for the sustainable supply chain performance: A system dynamic approach

Cleaner production practices at company level enhance the desire of employees to have a significant positive impact on society through work

“…have become a staple of the production chin pull in the garments manufacturing industry ( Belzagui et al., 2019 ; Cotton et al., 2020 ; Kant, 2012 ; Parisi et al., 2015 ). For that reason, garments manufacturers have been incorporating CSR as a marketing tool for shaping the fragmented perception of their stakeholders and end users ( Anh Nguyen and Le VO., 2019 ; de Abreu, 2015 ; Jammulamadaka, 2016 ; Lee and Lee, 2015 ; Metzner and Fischer, 2010 ; Perry and Towers, 2009 ; Salma, 2016 ). Although, garments manufacturing industry has been imparting a notable role in CSR related activities around the globe ( Anh Nguyen and Le VO., 2019 ; Cazeri et al., 2018 ; Jammulamadaka, 2016 ; Metzner and Fischer, 2010 ; Perry and Towers, 2009 ; Salma, 2016 ).…”

However, still much is yet to be discovered regarding the perceptive impact of CSR related practices in the garments manufacturing industry ( Baskaran et al., 2011 ; Chi, 2011 ; Farooq and Salam, 2020 ; Jahn and Brühl, 2019 ; Jammulamadaka, 2016 ; Kolk, 2016 ; Mohamed Adnan et al., 2018 ; Potdar et al., 2020 ).…”

“…Therefore, in view of this pervasive acceptance of the significance of CSR in the garments manufacturing industry ( Abreu et al., 2012 ; Jammulamadaka, 2016 ; Metzner and Fischer, 2010 ; Salma, 2016 ); it appears that in order to be equitable and globally competitive, garments manufacturing companies also have to prepare a clear roadmap for implementing CSR at company level ( Baskaran et al., 2011 ; de Abreu, 2015 ; Lee and Lee, 2015 ; Popkova et al., 2021 ). Further, in this regard Anh Nguyen and Le VO (2019) have also acknowledged the positive outcomes of the implementation of CSR as a dynamic tool for streamlining a stable supply chain network in the textile sector. Furthermore, Perry and Towers (2009) have also acknowledged the influence of CSR implementation in the garments and fashion industry of United Kingdom.…”

“…Moreover, a number of subject specific studies on the implementation of CPP, SQ and CSR (e.g. Anh Nguyen and Le VO., 2019 ; Augusto de Oliveira et al., 2019 ; de Oliveira et al., 2019 ; Farooq and Salam, 2020 ; Hsu and Chen, 2020 ; Liao et al., 2018 ; Ramos et al., 2021 ; Sinthupundaja et al., 2018 ) have acknowledged their distinct role in enhancing organizational performance and profitability.…”

“…However, recent aforementioned studies (e.g. Anh Nguyen and Le VO., 2019 ; Augusto de Oliveira et al., 2019 ; de Oliveira et al., 2019 ; Farooq and Salam, 2020 ; Hsu and Chen, 2020 ; Liao et al., 2018 ; Ramos et al., 2021 ; Sinthupundaja et al., 2018 ) portraying CPP, SQ and CSR as a tool for fostering performance and maximizing organizational profitability have somehow driven us bit off-course from their primary underlying objective of environmental, individual and social well-being perspective respectively ( Anh Nguyen and Le VO., 2019 ; Farooq and Salam, 2020 ; Hsu and Chen, 2020 ; Liao et al., 2018 ; Ware, 2021 ).…”
