Resumen
To progress towards sustainable development, more companies are voluntarily committing
to move from a linear economy to a circular economy (CE), mitigating resource consumption and
waste generation. Despite the commitment of companies, there is a lack of understanding of how
stakeholders view reduction, reuse, and recycling (3R), and the social aspects related to them. Stakeholders were asked how they perceive CE strategies, and more specifically, how they perceive that
these strategies, observed in the practice of the 3Rs, transcend into social aspects. The objective
of this research is to analyse stakeholders’ perception of CE strategies using the 3Rs framework
and stakeholder theory. Using a qualitative methodology, we conducted a case study for Green
Glass, a company that uses glass as an input to manufacture its products. By analysing the content
of 20 interviews, 23 videos, and 24 news items related to the company, we found that Green Glass
stakeholders perceive the contribution of the 3Rs towards CE and that these have social implications,
such as supplier evaluation with social impact, responsibility for the product, and decent work.
