A Study on Work Behavior of HR PersonnelTowards Environment to Endorse Green HRMPractices at Workplace

ABSTRACT – The Green HRM is an
emerging subject in current scenario.
Organizations have to give importance to social
and environmental factors, along with financial
and economic factors for permitting the
business to be successful in the corporate sector
thereby enabling achievement of profit by the
shareholders. Employees are expected to sustain
corporate values and objectives around the
green agenda. It is very important to recognize
the environment friendly green behavior and
attitudes of employees which are not completely
learnt in the organizations but also in their private
day to day life. Every employee as a human being
has their own distinctive lifestyles and mode of
living. They all follow their own expenditure
and use of survival items, which ultimately has
an effect on environmental changes and vis-aversa.
(Reus swig, 1994; Söderholm, 2010).
Therefore employees’ private role as consumers
is considered somewhat decisive for learning
and practicing environmental attitudes and
behavior. It is vital to know about the features
of HR managers, their decisions and behaviors
towards Green HRM. The research paper tries
to focus on the implementation of green HR
practices and work behavior of HR personnel
in the organization towards environment to
endorse Green HRM Practises at workplace.
