Circular Sustainable Supply Chain Management Framework from the Perspective of Triple Bottom Line

Abstract

Society has demanded sustainable development from organizations with a socially and environmentally responsible attitude in their management. corporate social responsibility (CSR) and circular economy (CE) are necessary to achieve sustainable development. However, organizations have faced difficulties implementing CSR and adopting CE in their supply chain. The literature shows a lack of research on CE as part of companies' strategies and on its relationship with CSR. To fill this research gap, this study aims to develop a first version of a conceptual framework for CSR aiming at the CE from the perspective of sustainable supply chain management (SSCM). The methodology used presents a scoping review with an elaboration of the fundamental architecture of the framework. The results obtained are descriptive of the Scoping Review and the framework with guidelines on how to adopt CSR and CE as a proposed artifact.
