Low-carbon operations and production: putting training in perspective

Purpose–The purpose of this paper is mainly to show how training may support low-carbon operations and production management in a more sustainable organizational context.
Design/methodology/approach–A conceptual framework to facilitate the integration between training and low-carbon operations and production is presented.
Findings–To accomplish better training in a low-carbon organization, some steps should be followed. Challenges may occur, including the necessity of collaboration across the supply chain. Research limitations/implications–The proposed framework should be applied and improved based on the actual conditions in organizations.
Originality/value–Low-carbon organizations are part of the future corporate world. But the link between training and low-carbon operations and production management is not yet clear. This paper contributes to this discussion and presents an original framework.
