Abstract
There is a growing concern about environmental degradation due to the organizations’ business processes. Green Information Technology (GIT) is an approach for sustainable practices to reduce business operations’ impact on the environment. This study aims to determine GIT readiness through a survey deployed small and medium enterprises in the Philippines. The results indicate that attitude and technology are the highest while the policy is the lowest in the five dimensions. Overall, there is an average Green Information Technology readiness level in small and medium enterprises in the Philippines. This study presents practical and research recommendations to further the uptake of GIT in small and medium enterprises in the Philippines.
