What is Green Human Resource Management Practices?

Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) Practices involve HR strategies such as eco-training, green recruitment, and performance incentives designed to promote pro-environmental behaviors and sustainability outcomes in organizations.

GHRM integrates environmental goals into HR functions like training and appraisal. Mishra (2017) explores its status and challenges in India with 332 citations. Wielewska et al. (2023) examine its role in shaping pro-ecological attitudes, cited 105 times.

Key Challenges

Why It Matters

GHRM enhances corporate sustainability by aligning employee behaviors with environmental objectives, amplifying impacts beyond technical fixes. Mishra (2017) proposes a framework linking GHRM to sustainable performance in India. Wielewska et al. (2023) show GHRM fosters green corporate policies, improving ecological attitudes in organizations. Sulich and Zema (2018) connect GHRM-related green jobs to public management for sustainable development.

Key Research Challenges

Implementation in Developing Economies

Adopting GHRM faces barriers like limited awareness and infrastructure in India. Mishra (2017) identifies gaps in practices and proposes a theoretical framework. Empirical validation remains scarce.

Measuring Pro-Environmental Behaviors

Quantifying employee attitudes and behaviors post-GHRM adoption is challenging. Wielewska et al. (2023) investigate GHRM's role but note inconsistent metrics. Studies lack standardized tools across sectors.

Integration with Broader Green Policies

Linking GHRM to national green growth strategies encounters policy silos. Kasztelan (2017) discusses green growth discourse, while Adamowicz (2022) ties it to EU Green Deal goals. Coordination between HR and environmental policies needs strengthening.
