The adoption of sustainable practices has become essential for the continuity of organizations, motivated by pressure from stakeholders, the search for competitive advantage, environmental protection and compliance with standards imposed by environmental policies. The government plays a central role in this context by implementing environmental policy instruments that guide business practices towards sustainability. These instruments are classified as regulatory (command and control), economic (market or incentives), cooperative (voluntary agreements) and informational. This study analyzes the impact of each type of instrument on corporate decisions for sustainable supply chain management, based on an integrative review of international literature (Scopus) up to 2020. The results indicate that regulatory instruments are the most influential, accounting for 38.57% of the references, followed by economic instruments (28.57%), informational instruments (24.29%) and, lastly, cooperation instruments (8.57%). These findings suggest that regulatory compliance is still the main motivator for companies to adopt sustainable practices.
