Abstract: | This study id identifies factors that inhibit green practice implementation in the leather tanning SME industry in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. These external 2nd internal barriers were identified during interview with representatives from a number of leather tanning SMEs and industry experts. The results show that SMEs in this sector adopt only a limited level of environmental practices. Internal barriers to green adopt ion included insufficient resources and infrastructure, low-skilled human resources, poor financial capability, low awareness, and poor organization a l strategies. The external barriers are significant; however, inadequate law enforcement and government support, a small and limited market segment, and the lack of green chemicals contribute also toward these poor practices. To deal with these problems, this research proposes eight strategies to tackle the obstacles that prevent the implementation of Ieather tanning green practices . |
