The Effect of Top Management Support and Support Supplier Development on Green Supply Chain Management in the Construction Jordanian

Abstract

There is a lack of systematic empirical evidence regarding the success factors of GSCM practices. To address these issues, this study examines the relationship between Top management support and Support supplier development practices of green supply chain management (GSCM) in the Jordanian construction sector. Based on a review of the previous studies, 27 items of the survey design were included. 136 manager’s data was collected from a population study. The study hypotheses were tested by multiple regressions. The results of the study revealed that Top management support and Support supplier development were supported with practices of GSCM. The results of the study improve and expand the current literature on more efforts to adopt GSCM, as well as motivate researchers to develop this concept and expand studies on the factors that lead to the success GSCM in the world and Jordanian construction sector in especially. This research is one of the few studies that examine the success factors of GSCM practices in the construction sector in Jordan in particular and developing countries in general. Theoretical implications and managerial implications of these findings are discussed.
