Abstract

In recent years, as there is growing concern with ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance), the strategic direction of business management is changing from maximizing shareholders wealth to maximizing stakeholders value. ESG is reshaping a corporation's supply chain management strategies. The purpose of this study is to explore the ESG challenges in supply chain management. As a result of network text analysis and topic modeling analysis on 3226 news articles, 'Suppliers', 'Sustainability', 'Shared Growth' 'Carbon Neutral', 'Safety and Health', 'Responsible Business Alliance', 'Supply Chain Due Diligence Law' were identified as the main issue. Since ESG initiatives in the supply chain are not limited to the efforts of individual firms, future research should focus on figuring out what difficulties and challenges exist in the diffusion of ESG practices along multi-tiered supply chains, and how to overcome them.

최근 ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance)에 대한 관심이 고조되는 가운데 기업경영의 방향성이 주주의 이익 극대화에서 관련한 다양한 이해관계자들의 이익 극대화로 변화하고 있다. ESG 경영은 기업의 공급망 관리 분야에도 다양한 영향을 주고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 ESG 경영관점에서 공급망 관리 분야의 이슈들과 과제들에 대해서 탐색하는 것이다. 국내 기사자료 3226편을 대상으로 네트워크 텍스트 분석과 토픽모델링 분석을 시행한 결과, '협력사', '지속가능', '동반성장' '탄소중립', '안전보건', 'Responsible Business Alliance', '공급망 실사법' 등이 주요 이슈인 것으로 파악하였다. 공급망에서의 ESG 노력은 개별기업의 노력만으로 이루어지는 것이 아니기 때문에 향후 연구에서는 복잡한 다계층 공급망에서 ESG 경영 전파를 하는데 어떠한 어려움과 이슈들이 있으며 이를 극복하기 위한 전략들은 무엇들이 있는지 분석할 필요가 있음을 본 연구를 통해 확인하였다.
