Linkages of QMS and soft EMS: perceptions of operations managers as modelled by SEM

Empirical studies in the contemporary operations management (OM) literature are found to be inadequate to explore whether the two ISO management standards namely, quality management system (QMS) and environmental management system (EMS) are integrated together in the same enterprise or not. This...
