Abstract

. Background: Green supply chain management (GSCM) practices are considered as vital practices in tackling environmental issues faced by firms. This study examines the relationship between GSCM, environmental and financial performance of firms. Further, the study examines the mediating role of operational performance between the relationships of GSCM-environmental performance and GSCM-financial performance. Additionally, the moderating role of external pressures (regulatory and customer pressures) has been examined on the relationship of GSCM and operational performance. Methods: Data from 277 executives working in different industries of Pakistan (where GSCM practices have been adopted) has been collected for the study. Results: The results of the mediated regression analysis confirm the partial mediation of operational performance between GSCM, environmental and financial performance. The results of moderated regression analysis confirm that presence of external pressures enhances the relationship between GSCM and operational performance. Conclusions: These results suggest that the adoption of GSCM practices in Pakistan can be fruitful for the companies. Mandatory requirement by regulatory authorities can also be helpful in adoption of the GSCM practices which ensure environmental performance of firms and consequently the betterment of

绿色供应链管理对财务和环境绩效的影响:经营绩效的中介作用和外部压力的调节作用

．背景:绿色供应链管理(GSCM)实践被认为是解决企业面临的环境问题的重要实践。本研究考察了GSCM、企业环境绩效和财务绩效之间的关系。进一步，研究考察了经营绩效在gscm -环境绩效与gscm -财务绩效之间的中介作用。此外，外部压力(监管压力和客户压力)对GSCM与经营绩效关系的调节作用也得到了检验。方法:收集了来自巴基斯坦不同行业(GSCM实践已被采用的地方)的277名高管的数据进行研究。结果:中介回归分析结果证实了GSCM、环境绩效和财务绩效在经营绩效之间存在部分中介作用。适度回归分析的结果证实，外部压力的存在增强了GSCM与经营绩效之间的关系。结论:这些结果表明，在巴基斯坦采用GSCM实践对公司来说是富有成效的。监管机构的强制性要求也有助于采用GSCM实践，确保公司的环境绩效，从而改善
