The Role of Green Human Resource Management in Promoting Sustainable Development in Manufacturing Industries

The literature review explores how industries employ strategies to encourage sustainable growth and use green human resource management, or GHRM. As sustainable concerns and regulatory demands continue to grow, industrial organizations are gradually incorporating sustainability into their operational and strategic frameworks by implementing GHRM practices. GHRM encompasses a range of environmentally responsible HR practices, including green hiring, performance evaluations, training, and employee involvement in environmental initiatives. The article includes several theoretical stances, such as institutional philosophy, stakeholder analysis, and the resource-based view (RBV), to demonstrate how GHRM aids organizational initiatives toward sustainability and environmental responsibility. According to the research study, GHRM significantly impacts a sustainable workplace culture, pro-environmental behavior, and environmental performance. The paper also highlights Several research gaps, including a lack of empirical data from emerging economies, inconsistent quantification of green HR outcomes, and a lack of longitudinal studies. Although GHRM has a lot of potential to improve industrial processes, the results suggest that its efficacy depends on organizational commitment, leadership support, and linkage with broader sustainability goals. The foundation for further study and practical implementation is laid by this analysis, which emphasizes the critical role that human capital plays in fostering sustainable industrial progress.
