Abstract

Obiettivi: L?affermazione di una nuova concezione del valore, basata sulle qualit? e non sull?insostenibile aumento delle quantit? di merci e consumi, induce gli operatori logistici alla ricerca di azioni che possano essere nel contempo economicamente efficienti ed efficaci, ecologicamente sopportabili e socialmente giuste. Il presente lavoro ha l?obiettivo di investigare e identificare le azioni sostenibili - economiche, ambientali e sociali - intraprese dagli operatori logistici. Metodologia: Il quadro teorico ? stato costruito attraverso lo studio della letteratura accademica nazionale e internazionale. La parte empirica ? stata sviluppata attraverso l?analisi dei pi? recenti report di sostenibilit? degli operatori logistici operanti in Europa, redatti secondo gli standard della Global Reporting Initiative. Risultati: Gli operatori logistici possono contribuire in modo significativo al cambiamento paradigmatico in atto, facilitando e favorendo, in qualit? di fornitori di servizi, il raggiungimento della sostenibilit? della supply chain. Limiti della ricerca: Il presente lavoro costituisce la fase preliminare di un pi? approfondito progetto di ricerca che indaghi le iniziative di sostenibilit? degli operatori logistici a livello mondiale e che consideri un arco temporale di osservazione utile a tracciare il trend in atto. Implicazioni pratiche: Sia l?accademia che il mondo professionale possono trovare utile l?analisi della letteratura sul tema e i primi risultati ottenuti, in quanto sono posti in evidenzia i principali tratti di sostenibilit? degli operatori logistici che gi? hanno intrapreso il percorso verso la sostenibilit?. Originalit? del lavoro: Gli studi della letteratura esistente sugli operatori logistici e la sostenibilit? si basano quasi esclusivamente sulla sostenibilit? ambientale e l?ecoefficienza, mentre manca un approccio sistemico capace di superare i problemi odierni mediante la valorizzazione della multidimensionalit?. Il lavoro contribuisce a colmare questo gap.
