“…Circular economy has a potential to understand and implement fundamentally new models and facilitate reaching sustainability and welfare with minimal or no material, energy or environmental costs. Circular economy can present a solution how to reduce a negative impact of the "bussines-as-usual" economic system (Ghisellini et al, 2016;Andryeyeva et al, 2021).…”

Integration of the circular economy system and its elements into business activities present new business opportunities. Despite the fact that circular economy represents a global trend, most industrial branches are based on the structure of a linear model. A system of circular economy has been gradually gaining ground in the business activities of companies functioning in Slovakia in different industries, including the clothing and textile industry. Transformation to the circular economy will be a necessity resulting from the legislative changes, as well as the pressure of public opinion. Our article focuses on this issue mentioned above. The main goal of the article is to explain the principles of the transition of companies operating in the textile and clothing industry from the linear to the circular economy and their potential for such a change and define the benefits of such a new business strategy for companies in Slovakia. In order for companies to be willing to switch to a circular economy, it is necessary to address the potential of the market and know the opinion of companies in the transition to a circular economy. To determine the market potential, we used ex ante forecasting using Holt's linear exponential smoothing, which showed us the growing trend of revenues in the textile industry, which can be an important factor for companies. In order for the transition to the circular economy to be successful, it is important to know the opinion of companies on the limitations and problems associated with the circular economy. To assess the opinions of companies, we worked with cluster analysis using the centroid method. The cluster analysis pointed to an implementation problem in almost 70% of the companies surveyed. Despite that all companies from the first cluster regard the circular economy as a new business model. However, it will be necessary to create adequate conditions for these companies to make the transition to the circular business models easier or possible. This primarily concerns adequate legislation and business operators' awareness of both positives and negatives connected with the transition to such a business model.

“…Such actions often need to be publicised, and the most common method is through the disclosure of information in an annual report. The past few decades have witnessed the expectations of stakeholders and the public on business firms' engagement to sustainability commitments, which integrate the performance of firms in terms of economic, environment, and social obligations [41][42][43][44]. Large and profitable business firms are receiving particular pressure from stakeholders and the public; therefore, they will tend to report more sustainability commitments compared with their smaller, lesser performing counterparts.…”

Business sectors face the advent of digitalisation, bringing attention to e-waste, or waste generated from obsolete electrical and electronic appliances. In addressing this issue, the study intends to examine e-waste disclosure by Bursa Malaysia listed firms. Specifically, this study investigates the extent and quality of e-waste disclosure, observes whether the reporting differs between industries and the boards on which the firms are listed, and investigates if e-waste disclosure is associated with firm and board characteristics. A total of 92 firms in the telecommunication and technology industries, listed on the Main and Ace boards of Bursa Malaysia, were selected as samples. The results reveal that despite an indication that e-waste reporting applies to the two sectors, only 16% of the firms report their commitment to managing e-waste. The disclosure shows how e-waste reporting is low in quantity and is circulated with only very general, qualitative information. An independent sample t-test reveals that firms listed on the Main board report significantly more e-waste information than their counterparts. Another t-test indicates an insignificant difference in e-waste disclosure between the firms under study. Furthermore, firm size significantly impacts e-waste disclosure, while firm performance, board size, and board gender diversity show insignificant impact. The results of this preliminary study shed some light on business firms’ commitment towards their e-waste management and reporting, which is a substantial factor for Malaysia to achieve environmental sustainability.

“…Car-sharing researchers focus mainly on aspects related to economic and technical, transport, environmental, and legal problems (Balać et al, 2019;Ferrero et al, 2018). However, due to the correct implementation of the assumptions of the sustainable transport policy and modern mobility, it is particularly important to pay attention to the issues concerning the proper fulfilment of the requirements set by the society and adjusting services to their needs (Chatterjee et al, 2013;Andryeyeva et al, 2021). It would seem that car-sharing services are to increase transport accessibility, eliminate the need to have funds for the purchase and maintenance of a vehicle, and give society equal access to the use of a modern form of mobility (Firkorn & Müller, 2011).…”

Currently, increasingly car-sharing systems are implemented in the area of urban transport systems. This type of development brings many benefits to cities and operators providing services, but above all, following the principles of sustainable development, it should improve society's quality of life. With this in mind, it is particularly important to monitor users' opinions on the services offered and take into account the problems and complaints reported by them. Monitoring opinions on services may contribute to the improvement of the quality of services, but most of all contribute to eliminating transport barriers related to the use of car-sharing services. This study aimed to identify transport barriers, accessibility issues, and transport social exclusion reported by users of car-sharing services. The purpose is to present the phenomenon of social exclusion in car-sharing services based on the Church's conceptual framework. The article identifies seven main categories of social exclusion, including economic, physical, geographic, spatial, fear-based, time-based, and facility-access barriers related to the use of car-sharing services. Moreover, the article includes presentation of remedial measures limiting the phenomenon of transport, social exclusion and barriers, consistent with the principles of sustainable development. The article supports operators who want to create services better suited to the needs of the society. It is also a response to a research gap dedicated to transportation social exclusion and aspects of responsible business in the car-sharing industry. The work supports eliminating the phenomenon of social exclusion and the pursuit of creating socially and environmentally responsible car-sharing services.
