As the contractor firms consist of Top Management (TM) and Site Management (SM), their synchronized commitment is vital to strengthen their action towards environmental protection. This study aims to develop a framework of the contractors’ Attitudinal Commitment for Site Environmental Practices (SEPs) through the attainment of four research objectives, i.e. exploring the level of SEPs, assessing the Attitudinal Commitment of TM and SM, investigating the factors influencing the Attitudinal Commitment and demonstrating the connection of Attitudinal Commitment between the TM and SM.

In Phase 1, the level of SEPs implementation are explored and the Attitudinal Commitment of TM and SM are assessed.

Phase 2 involved interviews with 16 TM and SM from G7 firms that are identified through selective sampling. 2017-12 Thesis http://eprints.usm.my/48070/ http://eprints.usm.my/48070/1/THE%20ATTITUDINAL%20COMMITMENT%20OF.pdf%20cut.pdf application/pdf en public phd doctoral Universiti Sains Malaysia Pusat Pengajian Perumahan, Bangunan & Perancangan (School of Housing, Building & Planning)
