Specifically, the study focuses on environmental and employee-related aspects. Additionally, we examine how environmental performance and employee performance mediate the relationship between GHRM and GSCM. This study draws upon data collected from 450 employees across various textile enterprises in Bangladesh. Structural Equation Modeling is employed using the Amos 24 software to analyze the relationships and interactions among these variables. These findings demonstrate that using environmentally sustainable practices in human resource management and supply chain management results in enhanced sustainability. The study indicates that environmental performance significantly influences the relationship between GHRM and GSCM regarding sustainable performance. The study findings indicate that firms operating in the textile industry should implement GHRM and GSCM practices to enhance their sustainability performance. Additionally, it is recommended that these organizations prioritize the well-being and engagement of their employees. Implementing such a strategy can bolster the organization's comprehensive sustainability initiatives and raise its standing among stakeholders. This study contributes to the expanding body of literature on textile sustainability by investigating the mediating role of employee and environmental performance. It emphasizes the significance of GHRM and GSCM techniques in improving sustainable performance. The findings provide valuable insights for firms seeking to develop more effective sustainability initiatives.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100253,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner Logistics and Supply Chain","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100143"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772390924000052/pdfft?md5=d3587942c1b66b293da8dd30a38876a6&pid=1-s2.0-S2772390924000052-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139549226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has reached an alarming level. Afford to purchase more than one vehicle by an individual who can pay for it may solve the transportation problem for them; however, not everyone has a personal vehicle for movement. Moreover, providing public transport facilities to everyone on a demand basis or on time basis is not possible for several reasons. Further, personal or commercial vehicles are not being used all the time or not carrying passengers in full though it can afford with the number of seats available. One possible solution is to share these vehicles for minimising the number of vehicles and to ensure the effective use of vehicles. Thus, the shared transport systems, such as ride-sharing, car-sharing, car-pooling, or bike-sharing are the promising choice to facilitate good accessibilities to the city or urban living population, especially in a densely populated area. In this paper, we have worked with such shared transport options by collecting data through an online survey and analysed data in various ways. We have also designed and developed a decision support system for this data to offer the city planners in Western Australia to make informed decisions about the future transportation systems for their people. Finally, we have predicted on the use of rail transport, for example, how a train station can be used to facilitate the shared transport options for better accessibility.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100253,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner Logistics and Supply Chain","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100140"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772390924000027/pdfft?md5=e4e2eef68aa564f0c59949ed9fad7a6f&pid=1-s2.0-S2772390924000027-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139395342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fundamental objective of the VRP is to determine the optimal route plan that minimizes the overall distance traveled. This study employs VRP to address the challenge of distributing fresh agricultural products within retail chains. It introduces an integrated bi-objective VRP model that concurrently optimizes resource allocation, order scheduling, and route planning. The proposed model incorporates two objective functions with the goals of minimizing total distribution costs and ensuring timely product deliveries to retail outlets. Real-world characteristics are integrated to enhance practical applicability. All solution algorithms and the developed VRP model undergo testing using data from one of Sri Lanka's largest retail chains. Numerical experiments showcase the efficiency of the proposed algorithm in solving real-world VRP problems. Moreover, the proposed VRP model achieves a 19% reduction in daily distribution costs, including a 24% saving in fuel costs. This not only provides financial benefits but also contributes to the reduction of the carbon footprint of retail chains. The model ensures on-time deliveries to 95% of retail outlets, which is crucial for maintaining the quality of fresh food. The findings of this study underscore the significant cost savings, enhanced sustainability, and improved quality associated with the efficient distribution of fresh agricultural products within retail chains.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100253,"journal":{"name":"Cleaner Logistics and Supply Chain","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100137"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S277239092300046X/pdfft?md5=eeea0cc6bb759538453704005a670577&pid=1-s2.0-S277239092300046X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139395490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Subsequently, this study extends the theory of planned behaviour (perceived behavioural control, attitude, and subjective norms) by general recycling behaviour, self-identity, quality consciousness, eco-literacy, and self-efficacy as predictors of reuse intention and behaviour. Structural equation modelling is conducted to analyse data from a sample of 428 questionnaire responses retrieved between 16 and 22 March 2022 from Australian consumers. Our findings support the notion that the fundamental predictors of the theory of planned behaviour, along with self-efficacy, and eco-literacy, are significant predictors in understanding sustainable behaviour such as reuse. However, no significant relationships were observed between self-identity, general recycling behaviour and quality consciousness. We made theoretical contributions to literature by addressing a gap in reuse, focusing on consumer behaviour and end-of-life garments. Extending on the theoretical implications, our study contends that engaging in reuse practices must be in collaboration with the entire supply chain. This study also provides a cultural context for reuse intention and behaviour amongst Australian consumers.

A descriptive analysis showed that the area is growing fast and that a vast majority of the papers applied mathematical methods with transport data. Further, five categories were deemed of interest in relation to logistics and electrification in the analysed literature: transport operation, charging, cost, actors, and sustainability. Each category is elaborated on and described in the paper. Additionally, the discussion includes several research gaps that the paper proposes need to be addressed to achieve viable electrified logistics systems and the gaps resulted in a research agenda with seven bullet points aiming to guide future research. The research agenda include, how planning of logistics systems is affected when charging is included; how logistics performance is affected when adopting electric trucks, and there is a need to include actors and their perspectives to a larger extent than what is done in the current literature.
