- Should Human Resources Management “Go Green”?: The Impact of Green Human Resources Management on Employees’ Green Behavior, Affective Commitment and Company Green PerformancePublication . Dias, Guida; Ribeiro, Neuza; Gomes, Daniel; Leandro, Alexandra; Santos, Maria JoãoEnvironmental concerns reflect a crucial theme in the twenty-first century due to the resource scarcity, the prevalence of pollution, among many other aspects. Organisation have played fundamental roles in contributing towards reducing the impact of their actions on the surrounding environment. In this context, green human resource management (GHRM) constitutes a set of sustainable practices carried out within the framework of human resource management. The objective of this study is to verify the impact of GHRM practices on the behaviours and commitment of members of staff as well as on the environmental performance not only of the members of staff but also the organisation. The sample is made up of 212 participants belonging to the human resource departments of different organisations. The results demonstrate that GHRM practices positively affect green behaviours, the environmental performance and the affective commitment. Hence, companies deploying GHRM practices manage to influence the behaviours of their staff, making them more environmentally aware and, consequently, helping them to improve the environmental performance of the organisation. Furthermore, organisations applying GHRM practices more easily establish affective bonds with their employees.
