Abstract
The importance of Green supply chain management (GSCM) practices in the context of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has rarely been argued. To the best of the author's knowledge, no attempt has been made to investigate the influence of GSCM practices on SDGs, particularly in the mining sector of a developing country like Jordan. As a result, the primary goal of this research is to examine the influence of five main GSCM practices on SDGs related to the environment and community aspects. A structured questionnaire was used to collect primary data from Jordanian mining firms, and 362 responses were analyzed. The study model was tested using a partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results demonstrate that all GSCM practices except green purchasing and investment recovery have a positive impact on community practices, and all practices except green purchasing have a positive impact on environmental practices. This study adds to a growing body of literature questioning the role of GSCM to the SDGs. Furthermore, policymakers in the mining sector will have a better understanding of the most influential GSCM practices that will assist them in attaining the SDGs.
