Supply chain social sustainability (SCSS) is crucial for ensuring fair labor practices, ethical sourcing, and community well-being, making it a fundamental pillar of responsible business operations. Given the rising concerns over human rights violations and environmental degradation, urgent investigation is needed to identify and mitigate risks, ensuring long-term resilience and ethical integrity. Emerging technologies have demonstrated great potential in enhancing supply chain social sustainability detection and remediation.

Using the systematic literature review approach, this research employs the stakeholder lens to conceptualize how the technologies can address the concerns previously identified on SCSS, and explain the role of various stakeholders in facing this challenge.

Method: systematic literature review (SLR)

Steps: 1. Narrative literature review to map SCSS issues and research themes; 2. Narrative literature review to map SCSS stakeholders; 3. SLR to link technologies and their potential to address SCSS issues.
