Abstract

Amaç: İşletmelerde büyüme ve refahı tehlikeye atmadan üretim ve iş süreçlerinde oluşabilecek olumsuz etkileri azaltmak döngüsel ekonomi uygulamaları ile mümkün olmaktadır. Bu kapsamda çalışmanın amacı, verimlilik ve sürdürülebilirlik gereği döngüsel ekonominin uygulanabilmesi için gerekli işletme özelliklerini belirleyerek işletmelere önerilerde bulunmaktır.

Yöntem: Araştırmada iki turlu Delfi anketi uygulanmıştır. İlk turda literatür taramasından elde edilen maddeler kullanılmış; ikinci turda ise bu maddelere ilave olarak katılımcılar tarafından eklenen yeni önermeler katılımcılara sunulmuştur. Anket grubu akademisyenler ile işletmelerde çevre konusunda çalışan uzmanlardan oluşmaktadır.

Bulgular: Araştırma sonuçlarına göre uzmanlar, 11 madde dışında diğer maddeler üzerinde uzlaşmışlar ve 8 maddede ise mükemmel ölçüde uzlaşı sağlamışlardır. Mükemmel uzlaşı sağlanan maddeler şunlardır: Geri kazanımı kolaylaştıran ürünler tasarlanması, su kullanımının azaltılması, enerji kullanımının azaltılması, operasyonların neden olduğu çevresel etkilerin azaltılması, emisyon miktarının azaltılması, tehlikeli ürünlerin kullanımının azaltılması ya da bırakılması, üst yönetimin döngüsel ekonomiyi desteklemesi ve yerel yönetimlerle çevre konusunda iş birliği yapılmasıdır.

Özgünlük: Türkiye'de döngüsel ekonomi kapsamında işletme özelliklerinin belirlendiği ilk çalışma olması bu araştırmanın literatüre katkısını ve özgün değerini ortaya koymaktadır.

A Delphi Methodology for Determining Features for Circular Economy Implementation in Firms

Abstract

Purpose: Reducing the negative effects that may occur in production and business processes without jeopardizing growth and welfare in enterprises is possible with circular economy practices. Taking into account productivity and sustainability, the purpose of this study is to determine the characteristics of businesses that are necessary to implement the circular economy and to provide recommendations to companies.

Methodology: Delphi questionnaires were applied in the study. In the first round, the items obtained from the literature review were used; in the second round, participants' new propositions were presented and considered alongside these items. The survey group consists of academics and experts involved in environmental issues in businesses.

Findings: Based on the results of the study, all the other items were agreed upon except 11 items. Experts reached a perfect agreement on 8 items: Designing products that facilitate recovery, reduction of water use, reduction of energy use, reduction of environmental impacts caused by operations, reduction of emissions, reducing or discontinuing the use of dangerous products, top management support and cooperation with local governments on environmental issues.

Originality: Furthermore, the fact that this is the first study in Türkiye to examine business characteristics in the context of a circular economy demonstrates literature contribution and the originality of the research.
