Abstract

It is necessary to equip employees with green abilities as well as to develop their dedication towards green behaviour, in order to improve an organization's environmental performance. The purpose of this research is to evaluate the direct impact of green training on organizational environmental performance (OEP) and the mediating effect of organizational citizenship behaviour on the environment (OCBE). The study is based on responses from 107 employees of the IT sector in India. The findings suggest that green training has a significant positive impact on the organizational environmental performance, and that the impact is strengthened by organizational citizenship behaviour towards the environment. The findings are of particular importance given the growing importance of sustainability in the organizational context.

Literature Review

The significance of human resource practices in improving environmental performance has been recognized and studied since the mid-1990s (Milliman and Clair, 1996). Its desired effects on environmental performance have been investigated. Many human resource practices have been designed to successfully communicate green concepts and aid in the implementation of green practices(Jabbour, 2008). In this study, the researchers investigate the role of one of such practice, i.e. green training, and its impact on organizational environmental performance through organizational citizenship behaviour to the environment.
