Role of Green Human Resource Management in Enhancing Environmental Performance

Abstract

The current study examines the effects of Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) practices on sustainable and environmental performance. Data was collected using a structured questionnaire, and a non-probability convenience sampling technique was applied. The analysis was conducted using SmartPLS (version 4.0) based on primary data. The study employed two main analytical approaches: the measurement model and the structural model. The measurement model was used to assess construct reliability and validity, including convergent and discriminant validity. A quantitative research approach was adopted, and data were collected through structured questionnaires from employees across different organizations. Statistical analysis revealed that all GHRM practices have a significant positive impact on organizational performance, with p-values less than 0.05, indicating strong support for all proposed hypotheses.

The findings highlight that organizations implementing green HR strategies can improve employee engagement, foster environmentally responsible behavior, and enhance overall efficiency and competitiveness. The study contributes to existing literature by providing empirical evidence on the effectiveness of GHRM in a developing economy context. It also offers practical implications for managers and policymakers to integrate sustainability into HR functions. Overall, the research emphasizes that GHRM is a vital approach for achieving long-term organizational success and environmental sustainability.
