Purpose-Green human resource management (GHRM) is an arising issue for the tannery industry in the context of developing economies. As the tannery industry can be seen as one of the highest polluting industries on earth, it becomes imperative for the industry to implement GHRM practices for greening the workforce. In this context, the purpose of this paper is to focus on antecedents that will support the implementation of GHRM practices in the tannery industry supply chain. Design/methodology/approach-In this study, an expanded literature review was organized to establish antecedents for implementing GHRM practices. The total interpretive structural modeling (TISM) technique is employed to explore interactions among the identified antecedents. Furthermore, Matriced Impact Croises Multiplication Applique analysis was conducted for determining the driving-dependence power of each antecedent. Findings-The results revealed that "green selection facility," "green recruiting facility," "green organizational culture," "green purchasing," "green strategy towards ES," "regulatory forces towards ES" and "top management commitment towards greening the workforce" are the key antecedents for the exercise of GHRM practices in the tannery industry. Practical implications-The proposed model might support decision makers to understand the interactions among the antecedents of GHRM practices. This model will help managers to understand the impact of one antecedent on another prior to the implementation of GHRM practices in the tannery industry. Originality/value-In this study, the author(s) propose a new version of the interpretive structural modeling approach (ISM), named the TISM technique, for determining the contextual interactions between GHRM initiative antecedents that are very new in the existing literature.

Green HRM hospitals during this era concentrate on the technical competence of employees and managerial because hospitals want to develop initiatives and be innovative in managing the environment that has tremendous managerial implications. In general, Green HRM is said to any or all HR management activities aimed toward improving green behavior (environmentally friendly) and promoting the sustainability of resources owned by hospitals. There's a considerable gap which is that the lack of understanding and inculcation of green behavior for hospital employees. For this reason, it's necessary to formulate the functions and practices of GHRM altogether HR management processes and evaluate their implications for employees' green behavior and overall hospital performance. The hospital is additionally under great pressure from various stakeholders to integrate Green HRM policies and techniques into the hospital strategy because it requires quite high costs. The overall objective of this research is to debate the concept of Green HRM practices in hospitals from a theoretical point of view, study its strategic implementation in various HR activities, and also the ultimate goal of developing green behavior of hospital employees.

Considering the difficult challenges facing the hospitality industry, environmental hotel performance becomes an important issue facing the hospitality industry to satisfy customers' needs. However, employee training plays a critical role in hotels' success, lack of research existed to identify deeply the impact of green employee training on environmental hotel performance. The current paper aims to reveal the influence of both perceived access to green training (PAGT) and perceived support for green training (PSGT) on hotel environmental performance. With a sample of 369 hotel employees and using structural equation model analyses, the results highlighted the positive impact of both PAGT and PSGT on environmental hotel performance. Drawing on these findings, theoretical and managerial implications, and related future research are discussed.

Green HRM means HR practices directed towards greening and contribution in environment sustainability. Our focus of study was GHRM and its implementation with existing HRM practices in colleges where the HR department plays a major role. We have also focused on determining the gap in the application of green HRM practices. The study is conducted in 16 colleges of Navi Mumbai region with the help of questionnaire which has been asked to HR and office and administration department of respective colleges. It has been found that half of the colleges visited are completely aware about Green HRM. Major green practices the colleges do are reusing and conservation of energy. On the basis of our research HR department should motivate and encourage employees to pursue green practices and should give proper training to the employees before implementation of green initiatives. Should encouraging the employees for attending the workshops, conferences and seminars on different aspects of environmental sustainability. Employees should also have given the freedom to modify or create new processes which are eco-friendly within the organization framework and policy and take disciplinary action for the employees who violate rules of green practices

Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) is increasingly considered as a critical branch of Human Resource Management (HRM) and it is still an emerging field of research that is interesting and highly instrumental in creating and enhancing natural environmental sustainability. This research paper is a systematic attempt to find out some research gaps in GHRM in order to carry out future empirical studies through the adoption of desk research strategy. An extensive literature review was done and it resulted in identifying nine research gaps in GHRM. Among the nine research gaps, two gaps are empirical, six gaps are both theoretical and empirical, and one gap is methodological. Future research studies could be designed and carried out in order to fill these identified research gaps.

Previously, the successfulness of a firm is measured by the advancement of economic value. However, today, the firm should consider to reduce the impact of industry footprint and give significance to social and environmental factors, together with economic factors and financial means to enable the firm to be profitable and at the same time protecting the environment. Businesses that understand the importance of their relationship with the communities in which it operates, and its impact on the environment, will be a success in the long run. Therefore, firms develop many approaches and systems for managing the environment through the use of less polluting materials, product design initiatives, and reduce packaging material and energy consumption. Environmental management initiatives can be a measurement of environmental performance (EP), which became an important performance benchmark in the firm, as well as financial indicators of business firms. One of the major strategies for the enhancement of environmental performance is the advent of an innovative strategic maneuver named green human resource management (HRM) practices. Green HRM practices are expected to form firms that focus on environmental, emphasize human capital and hiring employees who have extensive knowledge about the environment, provide training on the skills and capabilities in technology and innovation, also provide rewards and incentives to create a successful environmental management. Therefore, this paper uses Ability–Motivation–Opportunity (AMO) theory towards recognition the significant HRM parts that drive an influence on the EP.

In the last few years, global concerns have increased regarding environmental issues. These concerns generated more pressure and necessitated business and industries to develop and use green management by adopting environmentally-friendly practices and products. Today, more than ever before, people are willing to operate in an environmentally responsible way and they understand that they are part of society and should therefore adopt green practices in organisations. Green Human Resources Management (Green HRM) is recently attracting the attention of academic researchers and practitioners. Regardless the importance of green human resource management in various aspects, the literature shows that a broad process frame of reference for Green HRM has yet to emerge. The term Green Human Resource Management is by all accounts an unfamiliar term to most of the people, including experts and academics in HRM. In order to bridge this gap, this paper contributes towards a better understanding of green human resource management and related concepts. Green HRM is simply integrating Human Resource Management with Environmental related issues. Five Green HRM practices are reviewed in this paper. They include green recruitment and selection, green job analysis and design, green training and development, green performance management, and green reward management.

The primary purpose of this research is to analyze the influence of green human resource management practices on environmental sustainability performed in various organizations in Bangladesh. Organizations are giving more emphasis on financial profits, but they should be concerned for the impacts at their attaining environmental sustainability. To handle this crack, the present study allows a taxonomical literature review. The study analyzed different factors affecting environmental sustainability in the organizations. The total 200 responses have been drawn from 20 industries in Bangladesh. Factor analysis is presented to get the significant components which increment environmental sustainability. The determination of this inquiry divided into seven factors like green culture, green job design and analysis, green recruitment and selection, green training and development, green performance appraisal, green reward and compensation, green promotion and motivation that have a momentous influence on environmental sustainability. Similarly, it was also revealed that green performance appraisal should be developed for environmental sustainability. The study advised the employers, employees, policy makers, BGMEA, BKMEA, entrepreneurs and investors to focus on key variables of green HRM affecting the environmental sustainability of the organizations of Bangladesh.

Nowadays, managers in the public and private sectors consider having knowledge of green laws and issues as essential to the survival of their organizations. Although today researchers have promoted each issue of green human resource management and green supply chain management separately, but there has been a great deal of delay in integrating these two issues. Therefore, this study first attempts to provide an integrated and coherent framework for linking green human resource management and green supply chain management (GHRM-GSCM). For this purpose, firstly, using a comprehensive literature review of the research, interviews and expert opinion on the ornamental industry, the initial identification of evaluation indicators in green supply chain management and green human resources management was undertaken. In the next step, were determined the causal relations by using the fuzzy DEMATEL method and the fuzzy ANP method with the weight of each of the criteria and sub-criteria. The results of this assessment show that the factors of leadership, flexibility, and environmental importance are identified as effective factors, and optimizing these factors by the Arya array industry can caused to the optimization of other factors (influencing factors).

Environmental conservation has been a concern to many international, local organizations and individuals for Centuries. Green management initiatives become an important factor in forward-thinking business around the world as a means of combating environmental degradation caused by organizations. Moreover, industrialization has contributed to the global environmental problems we are witnessing today and Tanzania industrialization drive cannot ignore this fact. Research is one of best ways for investigating, understanding and solving problems. Although number of researches has been done on Green Human Resource Management (Green HRM), still there is no sufficient literature on the subject. To bridge this gap this study investigated the role of green recruitment and selection on performance of processing industries in Tanzania by using Tanzania Tobacco Processors Limited (TTPL) as a case study. The study sough to specifically assess the application of green recruitment and selection at TTPL, determining whether green recruitment and selection attract more and better job candidates, and establishing the relationship between green recruitment and selection and organizational performance. It was found that green recruitment and selection practices are in place and they contribute in attracting more qualified job candidates. The 36 study also found a linear relationship between green recruitment and selection and performance. Further, the study recommends institutionalization of green recruitment and selection and other green HRM practices in order improve organizational performance. Regulatory and statutory bodies are recommended to ensure that green practices are put in place by organizations for organizational and environmental sustainability.

The perception of creating a sustainable environment by business entities is explored in this paper. The rising demand for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) leads to the application of management tools of green human resource management. Most organizations have adapted human resource practices that encourage a green environment with a consideration of minimal environmental pollution and destruction of the environment. As part of a conservation motive, the human resource department has played a critical role of securing the environment via their normal official activities. As a result, the senior management of an organization also an obligation of ensuring that the employees are supported as they seek to meet the social, ecological and economic benefits from a green environment. The idea of having a green environment by the human resource department is an integral process that affects the activities of green selection and recruitment, performance appraisal method, the reward and pay system and a supportive green culture. The importance of green environment is emphasized in the paper as well as the efforts by different companies in maintaining a sustainable environment. The expected outcomes of Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) are evaluated and the setbacks expected when trying to achieve a green environment.

In today’s world, green human resource management is one of the most important factors in forward-thinking your environment-friendly business. Most of the researchers are of the view that employees must be empowered and environmentally aware of greening while carrying out green human resource management practices. The present study is examining the impact of different Green human resource practices on environmental behavior directly or indirectly via Pro-environmental behavior. The data is collected through questionnaire from the educational institutions in Baltistan region. The sample size is 300 employees of public universities. A Structure Equation Modelling is utilised to obtain the relationships between the variables. The results show that green human resource management practices have a strong direct impact on Environmental sustainability while the indirect relationship between green environmental training and sustainable environment through a mediator “pro-environmental behavior”. The results illustrate that Green Performance Management and Appraisal has a positive (β=0.27), Green Reward and Compensation and environmental sustainability which again shows a positive (β=0.14) and significant impact of Green Reward and Compensation on environmental sustainability. Green Training and Development also shows a positive (β=0.29) and Green Training and Development has a positive and significant relationship. The results suggest that the mediator does not sensitise environmental sustainability. The study suggests that Public Sector universities need to train and compensate their employee to reduce environmental degradation and make their contribution to the sustainability of the environment.

This paper contributes to extant research on green human resource management (HRM) relying on the instrumental value of stakeholder theory, which implies that stakeholders impact on company decisions and their development of organizational resources and performance. Following that theory, the study conceives green HRM practices as a set of management processes that companies implement for responding to stakeholder pressures on environmental issues. Accordingly with those premises, we empirically test the distinct role that different green HRM practices (i.e. green hiring, green training and involvement, and green performance management and compensation) play in mediating the relationship between pressures on environmental issues from two specific external stakeholders (i.e. customers and regulatory stakeholders) and environmental performance. Our findings, based on a multi-respondent survey in which the respondents were Human Resource Managers and Supply Chain Managers operating in Italy, confirm the hypothesized mediation model. Our results (as well as their implications) are discussed in light of the recent calls to broaden the scope of HRM research, considering the embeddedness of the company in a socio-political context and exploring the role that actors and factors outside the company play in shaping its green HRM practices.

The study was conducted at the Department of Human Resource Management, Jatiya Kabi Kazi Nazrul Islam University, Trishal, Mymensingh-2220, Bangladesh during June to August 2019to determine the factors which can affect the process of human capital formation in a developing country like Bangladesh. Although the growth of physical capital is relatively important in the progression of economic growth of a country but with the course of time, it is being gradually recognized that the growth of tangible capital depends on the human capital formation. A self-developed questionnaire measured on a 5 point Likert scales and it was distributed among 200 banks employees. Factors analysis has been used to analyze the data and to draw the findings. The reliability of the data was tested by Cronbach's Alpha test. Correlation test and SPSS 20 versions were used for the analysis of the data. The result provides evidence that there are some important factors such as skills and competencies, formal education and knowledge, organizational training, creativity and innovation capability, job experience have a positive and statistically significant relationship with the human capital formation. Besides, this study provided some directions for the researchers and advised the policy makers, all banks, entrepreneur and investors to concentrate on key variables in this field.

A systematic study was carried out with regard to defining the terms Green and Green Human Resource Management(GHRM) owing to little research done conceptually, in particular a gap in the theoretical knowledge of defining "Green" and GHRM in a synthesized form and intellectual curiosity. Objectives of the study were (1) to explore the definitions given by the main dictionaries and the New Oxford Thesaurus of English,and the researchers with regard to the term "Green" and present them to create a reasonable interpretation of the term; (2) to explore the definitions given by the researchers with regard to the term "GHRM" and present them to create a reasonable interpretation of the concept of GHRM; and (3) to identify and present characteristics of GHRM based on the definitions examined under the study. The desk research strategy was applied to achieve the three objectives. Four interpretations could be derived from the dictionary definitions relating to Green. Based on the research papers it was found that the term Green has four spheres of meaning and further the term "Green" in management refers to environmental or eco-activities. Six sources of defining GHRM which were examined resulted in seven interpretations. Finally the examination of the essence of the definitions revealed ten characteristics of GHRM.

The buzzing world of sustainability has led to soaring growth of literature on green marketing, green accounting, green retailing, green supply chain management and green general management. Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) studies on how this field contributes to preserving the environment is hardly found. The polarization between "Best fit" and best practice in HRM make difficult to measure human resource management output. Drawing on the classical Ability Motivation Opportunity (AMO) framework emphasizing the necessity of employees to possess abilities, motivation and be given opportunity to perform, Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) is used to spot the terrain for further study on green human resources management as an innovation in Malaysian setting. As most innovations are related to product development, this study highlights GHRM practices as a process innovation in responding to the current trend shifting from pro-economic to pro-social then pro-environment. This way, under the AMO concept, this study scrutinizes the necessity to initiate GHRM practices in manufacturing companies of Malaysia as a process innovation by integrating people, process, technology and the organization. Finally, the model is expected to support the recent National Green Policy.

The mediating influences of GHRM and SCEC on the influence of IGSCP on FP are also examined. The study further examines the mediating influence of SCEC on the link between GHRM and FP. Design/methodology/approach-The study uses a quantitative method where data is gathered from human resource and supply chain managers of 139 manufacturing firms (food, beverage and alcohol, textiles, agrochemical and plastics), using customized questionnaires. The data is analyzed using the partial least square structural equation modeling software (SmartPLS 3.2.8). Findings-The results suggest that the adoption of only IGSCP may negatively affect the market and financial performances of firms. However, the implementation of GHRM and SCEC may catalyze IGSCP to improve FP. Originality/value-The study develops a comprehensive empirical model that tests the joint influence of internal green supply chain, GHRM and SCEC on FP. The findings indicate that IGSCP, GHRM and SCEC help firms to advance FP.

Green HRM hospitals during this era concentrate on the technical competence of employees and managerial because hospitals want to develop initiatives and be innovative in managing the environment that has tremendous managerial implications. In general, Green HRM is said to any or all HR management activities aimed toward improving green behavior (environmentally friendly) and promoting the sustainability of resources owned by hospitals. There's a considerable gap which is that the lack of understanding and inculcation of green behavior for hospital employees. For this reason, it's necessary to formulate the functions and practices of GHRM altogether HR management processes and evaluate their implications for employees' green behavior and overall hospital performance. The hospital is additionally under great pressure from various stakeholders to integrate Green HRM policies and techniques into the hospital strategy because it requires quite high costs. The overall objective of this research is to debate the concept of Green HRM practices in hospitals from a theoretical point of view, study its strategic implementation in various HR activities, and also the ultimate goal of developing green behavior of hospital employees.

Purpose This study aims to examine the direct impact of internal green supply chain practices (IGSCP) on green human resource management (GHRM), supply chain environmental cooperation (SCEC) and firm performance (FP). The mediating influences of GHRM and SCEC on the influence of IGSCP on FP are also examined. The study further examines the mediating influence of SCEC on the link between GHRM and FP. Design/methodology/approach The study uses a quantitative method where data is gathered from human resource and supply chain managers of 139 manufacturing firms (food, beverage and alcohol, textiles, agrochemical and plastics), using customized questionnaires. The data is analyzed using the partial least square structural equation modeling software (SmartPLS 3.2.8). Findings The results suggest that the adoption of only IGSCP may negatively affect the market and financial performances of firms. However, the implementation of GHRM and SCEC may catalyze IGSCP to improve FP. Originality/val...

Today, the establishment of strong supply chain structures should be supported by a strong human resources management approach, as well as encompassing environmentalist and innovative approaches. At this point, this study has two main aims that include these requirements. The first aim is to determine whether the green human resources management (GHRM) of companies operating in the automotive industry has a direct impact on green supply chain management (GSCM). The second aim is to determine whether green product innovation (GPI) has a mediating effect in the relation GHRM and GSCM. Structural equation modelling is used to test the developed hypotheses. GHRM of automotive companies operating in Turkey has a significant positive effect on GSCM. In addition, GPI has a full mediating role in the relationship between GHRM and GSCM. Green-oriented should be establishment in the supply chain structures. Green-oriented human resources management approach is necessary to develop a green-oriented SCM. GHRM approach should be strengthened with GPI activities for GSCM.
