Environmental, social, and governance and hierarchical network data envelopment analysis firm efficiencies of Japan Airlines' supply chain

Although environmental, social, and governance (ESG) have been recognized for its overall impact on firm efficiency, research on the effects of the three main and multiple sub elements of ESG, especially in the airline industry, has been lacking. Thus, we analyze the impacts of overall ESG, its thre...
