Linking Green Human Resource Management with Employee Pro-environmental Behaviours, Green Psychological Climate and Environmental Concern: A Sustainable Perspective

This study examines the impact of green human resource management practices (GHRMP) on employees’ pro-environmental behaviours (PEBs). The study investigates the mediation effect of green psychological climate (GPC) and the moderating effect of environmental concern in the relationship between GHRMP and PEBs. We gathered survey data from 419 employees in the Indian hospitality sector. Hypothesis testing was performed using partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM). The results established the significant positive impact of GHRMP on PEBs. The findings suggest a significant mediatory impact of GPC in the green human resource management—PEBs association, and environmental concern significantly moderates this association. With empirical evidence, this research sheds new light on the psychological mechanism that links green human resource management and PEBs and contributes to the increasing line of work on GHRMP, GPC, environmental concern and employees’ PEBs. When organizations cultivate a GPC through GHRMP, they demonstrate their dedication to environmental sustainability, which can encourage employees to adopt PEBs in alignment with these organizational values.
