  • Abstract
    Electronic Industry Code of Conduct (EICC) is an industry-wide collaboration established standards to ensure that working conditions in the electronics industry supply chain are safe and the business operations are environmentally responsible. This study aims to empirically investigate the EICC Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) among suppliers of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) industry. We collected EICC Corporate SAQ from four computer manufacturing sectors in Taiwan, namely, ODM, storage, power, and others, and received 46 valid responses for data analysis. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to analyze the data. The results are consistent with our hypothesis that the performance of environmental, health and safety is related to the location of corporate. It also related to the supplier published corporate responsibility/environmental report or not. Our study contributes to the literature on empirical examination of green supply chain management in ICT organizations.
