Author(s): Yacoub Hamdan, Ahmad Fathi Alheet

The rise in global warming influences people and corporations to act more responsibility to undertake activities with respect to conservatism and sustainable development to save the planet Earth for future generations to come. This thought has given rise to study and thus implement the practices of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Corporate Green Performance (CGP) and lastly Total Quality Management (TQM). According to past literature, these concepts, when applied effectively in a practical business environment, overlap each other and run simultaneously. The study evaluates the impact of TQM on CGP while considering CSR as a mediating variable. Results of the study reveal a significant mediating effect of CSR in the relationship between TQM and CGP.
