Abstract

This paper aims to study the relationship between corporate social responsibility and environmental performance in Yemeni small and medium industrial enterprises. Based on a research framework, a self-questionnaire was used to collect data from a sample of 220 owners/managers of small and medium enterprises. The empirical results reveal that there is a significant positive relationship between four dimensions of corporate social responsibility (suppliers, environment, human resource management, and society) and the environmental performance of Yemeni SMEs, in contrast, there is one dimension of corporate social responsibility (investors), and its results showed no relationship with environmental performance.
