Abstract

PurposeDespite its potential advantages in a wide range of environmental subjects, green intellectual capital has received scant attention in the field of reverse logistics (RL). This research focuses on exploring the relationship between significant green intellectual capital assets (namely green human capital, green relational capital, and green structural capital) and RL competency. The moderating role of regulatory measures was also hypothesized and tested.Design/methodology/approachA survey-based research instrument was employed to collect data and partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) based approach was utilized to test hypotheses.FindingsThe results indicate that green relational capital and green structural capital are positively associated with RL competency. Interestingly, regulatory measures are also found only to moderate the relationship between green human capital and RL competency.Originality/valueThis study extends the present literature by enhancing the knowledge of RL competency, which is a critical ingredient of the circular economy, by revealing the relation with green intellectual capital. Additionally, this study offers insights into the manufacturing industry, especially in emerging economies for academics and practitioners.

绿色智力资本对逆向物流能力有影响吗?监管措施的作用

目的尽管绿色知识资本在广泛的环境领域具有潜在优势，但在逆向物流领域却很少受到关注。本研究的重点是探讨重要的绿色智力资本资产（即绿色人力资本、绿色关系资本和绿色结构资本）与RL能力之间的关系。还对调节措施的调节作用进行了假设和测试。设计/方法/方法采用基于调查的研究工具收集数据，并采用基于偏最小二乘结构方程建模（PLS-SEM）的方法检验假设。研究结果表明，绿色关系资本和绿色结构资本与RL能力呈正相关。有趣的是，监管措施也只是为了缓和绿色人力资本和RL能力之间的关系。原创性/价值本研究通过揭示与绿色知识资本的关系，增强了对RL能力的认识，RL能力是循环经济的关键组成部分，从而扩展了现有文献。此外，这项研究为学者和从业者提供了对制造业的见解，尤其是在新兴经济体。
