Indonesia’s government policy recommends that medium and large companies carry out corporate social responsibility programs. These programs provide sustainability for the company because they can involve community social relations, economic growth, and increasing environmental awareness. This study aimed to test corporate social responsibility on firm performance with green innovation as a mediation. This study used PROPER companies in 2015–2019, which were chosen using a purposive sampling method involving annual reports and financial reports, yielding 253 companies as a sample.

Corporate social responsibility has a positive effect on firm performance because the company has maintained the continuity of the process.

This study examines the effect of green supply chain management (GSCM) on firm performance, with competitive advantage as mediation and board size as moderation. Purposive sampling method was used to examine 516 PROPER companies from 2010 to 2018. Data were obtained from the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Results show that GSCM has a positive effect on competitive advantage but does not affect firm performance, whereas competitive advantage has a positive effect on firm performance. Moreover, competitive advantage can mediate the relationship between GSCM and firm performance. Board size cannot moderate the relationship between GSCM and competitive advantage, but it can moderate the relationship between competitive advantage and firm performance and the relationship between GSCM and firm performance. The results of this study can be used to improve firm performance of companies concerned with environmental impact. The research findings contribute to the idea that board size has a role in strengthening the implementation of GSCM to create competitive advantages that can increase firm performance.
