“…EE, OP, OI and DSIW in our case) of the implementation of SQ at company level in the garments manufacturing industry ( Anisul Huq et al., 2014 ; Basili and Rossi, 2020 ; Konijnendijk, 1993 ; Waldinger, 1986 ). In this regard, this study argues that an organization’s concern towards SQ at company level, somehow influences it’s employees’ behavior and DSIW as well ( Farooq and Salam, 2020 ; Patten et al., 2020 ; Peng et al., 2014 ; Salam et al., 2019a ; Towers and Xu, 2016 ).…”

“…In consideration of this point, we submit that employees play a frontline role while implementing CPP at company level ( Potoski and Callery, 2018 ; Veleva et al., 2017 ); however, their take on the implementation and impact of CPP has been grossly overlooked in previous studies ( Adapa, 2018 ; Farooq and Salam, 2020 ; Matthews, 2018 ; Ramos et al., 2021 ; Yadav et al., 2020 ). In this context, this study argues that the mainstream and practical role of employees, which is undoubtedly very important for carrying out the on-ground implementation of CPP, needs a thorough exploration in the context of EE, OP, OI and DSIW ( Hilson, 2000 ; Li et al., 2019 ; Ramos et al., 2021 ; Salam et al., 2019a ; Salam and Farooq, 2020 ; Yusup et al., 2015 ; Zhang et al., 2015 ). Additionally, adding to the importance of this study Farooq and Salam (2020, p. 16) have also called for more micro level studies for ascertaining the relation between the implementation of CPP and DSIW ( Farooq and Salam, 2020 , p. 16).…”

“…In this aspect, many academicians (e.g. Arnett et al., 2002 ; Gouthier and Rhein, 2011 ; Salam et al., 2019a ; Swanson and Kent, 2017 ) have also acknowledged the connotations of OP as a potential outcome of the implementation of CSR at company level ( Farooq and Salam, 2020 ). As stated earlier, OP refers to the sense of conceit, pride and officiousness at an individual level ( Farooq and Salam, 2020 ; Gouthier and Rhein, 2011 ).…”

Implementation of cleaner production practices (CPP), service quality (SQ) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) is often studied at organizational level. A number of studies on trio have reported it’s significant impact on overall organizational performance and profitability across the globe. However, not much is studied about the individual level micro influence of these constructs on employee engagement (EE), organizational pride (OP), organizational identification (OI) and “desire to have a significant impact through work” (DSIW). Therefore, this study presents a comprehensive framework for assessing the impact of the implementation of CPP, SQ and CSR on EE, OP, OI and DSIW. Data collected from 320 non-managerial staff members employed at a garments manufacturing company in Pakistan was analyzed using partial least square (PLS) approach. Findings revealed that the implementation of CPP, SQ and CSR plays an important role in shaping EE, OP, OI and DSIW in the garments manufacturing industry. Further, it is found that the implementation of CPP has a non-significant impact on SQ. Additionally, results of the importance-performance map analysis (IPMA) have also confirmed that the implementation of CPP at company level has shown a highest importance and performance amongst all the latent constructs proposed as predictors of DSIW in the garments manufacturing industry. These findings are a step forward and unique contribution of this study in the domain of CPP, SQ, CSR, EE, OP, OI and DSIW.

“…A review of empirical research studies integrating CSL into university curriculum revealed that CSL has been adopted across academic disciplines and in different countries (Salam et al, 2019a;Barwani et al, 2010;Kesten, 2012). For example, Bender and Jordan (2007) investigated students' attitudes and perceptions of CSL before starting a course at a university.…”

Community service learning (CSL) has been regarded as a pedagogical tool which provides students with opportunities to participate in a service activity to meet social needs and simultaneously gain benefits for themselves. There has been a tendency in the world to include CSL in higher education training programs. This study aims to investigate Vietnamese EFL teachers' and students' perceptions of CSL and their practices of a CSL-integrated course at a university of foreign languages in central Vietnam. The study involved 61 teachers and 201 students and employed quantitative and qualitative approaches. The findings revealed that both teachers and students showed strong support for CSL, and that the teachers, especially more experienced teachers, had more positive beliefs than the students about the five categories surveyed: perceptions of CSL, role of the school, benefits for teachers, benefits for students, and feasibility of CSL integration. Also, the participants believed that CSL was to be a tool to help students develop professionally, personally, and academically.

This systematic review examined the role of Service-Learning experiences promoted by higher education institutions to strengthen the achievement of social justice outcomes among youth. We screened and coded studies following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). Of the 555 articles found in the database search, 47 peer-reviewed studies were included in the final sample. Social justice construct, together with research location, participants, target community and outcomes, were coded. Results show effects of Service-Learning experiences on (a) fostering significant improvement of students' social justice beliefs, (b) stimulating significant changes in students' attitudes with respect to the development of altruistic behaviours and their commitment to social justice, and (c) increasing students' critical understanding by sparking questioning processes related to personal assumptions of inequalities. This systematic review provides insights into the strengths and challenges of implementing social justiceoriented Service-Learning experiences.
