MONITORING ENVIRONMENT IMPACT AND ETHICAL PRACTICES WITHIN SUPPLY CHAIN

Abstract

As companies increasingly recognize the importance of sustainability and ethical practices within their supply chains, monitoring and managing environment impact and ethical practices has become a critical component of supply chain management. This study examines the current state of monitoring environment impact and ethical practices within supply chains, highlighting the challenges and opportunities that companies face in this area. Our results show that while companies recognize the importance of monitoring environment impact and ethical practices within their supply chains, they face significant challenges in doing so, including a lack of data, complexity, cost, and regulatory requirements. Also identify opportunities for companies to improve their practices and achieve greater sustainability and ethical performance. By addressing the challenges and opportunities identified in this study, companies can improve their sustainability and ethical performance, enhance their reputation, and contribute to a more sustainable and ethical supply chain.
