Abstract

This research paper aims to investigate how Human Resource Management (HRM) practices and environmental sustainability connect within the framework of a business. Specifically, this study seeks to examine how Green Human Resource Management (HRM) practices might operate to achieve environmental sustainability in enterprises, with a specific emphasis on analyzing Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) as a mediator in this relationship. This study aims to investigate the processes responsible for the influence of human resource management practices that emphasize environmental concerns on employee behaviour, specifically regarding the amounts of voluntary contributions that employees make to environmental sustainability efforts inside the firm. By examining organizational citizenship behaviour (OCB) 's role as a mediator, the research endeavours to provide light on the complex relationships between human resource management practices, employee behaviour, and environmental sustainability outcomes. Methodologically, this study considered a cross-sectional design due to the one-time data collection and casual design because of examining the relationship between the study variables. The findings provide a comprehensive understanding of how green HRM practices influence environmentally sustainable business in the presence of OCB as a mediator.
