Diagnosing the Reality of Cleaner Production Dimensions: An Exploratory Study of the Opinions of a Sample of Functional Staff at the Ready-Made Garments Factory in Mosul

Abstract

The current research aims to diagnose the dimensions of cleaner production, represented by (substituting raw materials, modifying technology and equipment, recycling waste, and good managerial practices) in the ready-made garment factory in Mosul. The study is based on a research problem that emerged from diagnosing the extent to which the surveyed organization adopts a cleaner production policy through its dimensions. The research hypothesis states that the ready-made garment factory in Mosul adopts cleaner production at a comprehensive level and in terms of its specific dimensions.A questionnaire was used as the primary tool for data collection, and the statistical program (SPSS V24) was employed to analyze the data from the surveyed sample, which consisted of 165 respondents from the organization’s workforce. Using a five-point Likert scale, the study concluded with several findings confirming the presence of these dimensions at varying levels within the surveyed organization. Additionally, the study presented key recommendations, most notably the necessity of focusing more precisely on the cleaner production approach and its dimensions to achieve the organization’s objectives
