“…Remarkably, various studies have found that many firms have received environmental awards and faced significant losses, indicating that market partners are not considering the environmental aspects in their investment decisions (Huynh 2020 ; Qiu et al 2021 ). Consistent with the outcomes of Giuli and Kostovetsky (2012) study when they reported that the environment-protected projects represent an extra cost on the firm and are negatively related to the market and financial performance.…”

The role of project’s initiatives focused on the reduction of environmental footprints during COVID-19: evidence from the United States firms

et al. 2021

In this paper, we examine whether the projects of the United States (U.S.) corporations have implemented initiatives to reduce the environmental footprint of their supply chains during coronavirus (COVID-19). Environmental footprint reductions could be achieved by reducing waste, reducing resource use, and reducing ecological emissions by introducing environmental management systems in the supply chains. For this aim, the project’s initiatives play a crucial role. This study has the primary purpose of examining the impact of ecological footprints on financial performance achieved by US corporations’ initiatives implemented through projects during the COVID-19 period. The final sample comprises 9997 company-year observations over the investigation period between 2010 and 2020. The results suggest that firms implementing the initiatives to reduce environmental footprint have shown a significant positive financial performance during the COVID-19 period. The results are robust to alternative specifications of informativeness and sensitivity tests controlling for time-invariant firm characteristics and alternative firms' performance measures. Our results corroborate with stakeholder theory, which implies implementing green policies will alleviate the agency issue and safeguard the shareholders' interest. Moreover, it clearly demonstrates the positive impact of environmental projects-focused organizations on the financial and environmental performance even while challenging and disrupting situations such as this unprecedented pandemic.

“…The aviation sector has well‐known and significant detrimental effects on the environment (Hinnen et al, 2017; Qiu et al, 2021; Vespermann & Wittmer, 2011). These include problems of high visibility and concern (Hinnen et al, 2017; Lopes de Sousa Jabbour et al, 2020), such as aircraft noise, local air contamination, water utilisation and pollution and special impacts on climate change through carbon emissions (Daley & Thomas, 2011; Payán‐Sánchez et al, 2018).…”

Network ambidexterity and environmental performance: Code‐sharing in the airline industry

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The most common form of horizontal collaboration within the airline industry is code-sharing, which provides firms with many economic and operational benefits, although what happens in the environmental area is less certain. How should companies address code-sharing to contribute to sustainability? The main objective of this work is to analyse the impact that this type of horizontal collaboration can have on the environmental performance of airlines. From this, we propose that network ambidexterity-the ability to balance exploration with new partners and exploitation with prior partners-is an adequate strategy to solve agency problems derived from collaboration practices to achieve environmental outcomes. Using hierarchical regression analysis, our results reinforce code-sharing as a critical resource for the improvement of environmental performance and identify the moderating role of network ambidexterity in the impact of alliances on environmental performance.

“…One problem is that certain advances in technology may undermine the pursuit of long-term, sustainable development efforts (Cao et al, 2021). While the use of new and emerging technologies may accelerate progress toward sustainability, it can also disrupt markets and economies, aggravate social divisions, and pose moral issues (Qiu et al, 2021). Because the field of sustainability research is still not properly defined, developed, or applied, many businesses in developing economies today lack the knowledge needed to successfully adopt and adapt sustainable strategies (Luthra et al, 2017).…”

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has manifold disastrous effect on different service and production sectors, and manufacturing industries are no exception. Emerging technologies (ETs) can play a pivotal role in reviving these ailing manufacturing industries. However, the cost of implementing and operating ETs is a prime concern. Nonetheless, the important attributes that will minimize the cost and harness the advantages of the technology are still to be explored. To address this gap, this research seeks to examine the critical attributes required for the effective and efficient deployment of ETs. At first, a detailed literature review was conducted to identify and sort the attributes influencing the effective use of ETs in manufacturing industries. After that, Fuzzy-TODIM (Portuguese abbreviation of “Interactive and Multi-Criteria Decision Making”) method was used to rate the importance of the attributes. The result reveals that, “Inventory and Resource Management” tops the attribute list responsible for exploiting the optimal usage ETs, followed by “Development of Skilled Workforce” and “Supplier and Service Management Capability,” respectively. This paper will assist industry professionals not only in using ETs but also getting the best yield from them strategically and practically.
