Abstract

Due to the business complexity and competitive environment, hotels are paying great attention to improve their sustainability performance through greening their workforce. Thus, this study examines the role of Green HRM practices in attaining sustainable environmental performance in Malaysian hotels while considering the crucial role of employees' pro-environmental attitudes, green behaviors, and green work climate perceptions. Data were collected from the employees who were directly engaged in implementing green practices in selected hotels. A survey questionnaire was used for data collection, and about 350 responses were received and applied for analysis through PLS-SEM. Findings revealed that Green HRM practices (green training and involvement, green performance management and compensation) positively and significantly influence employees' pro-environmental attitudes, further promoting green behaviors. It was also found that employees' green behaviors are the key contributors to spurring sustainable hotel performance. Therefore, this study might support decision-makers in understanding the role of Green HR practices in greening the workforce in the hospitality industry context.

绿色人力资源管理与马来西亚酒店的可持续绩效

由于业务的复杂性和竞争环境，酒店非常重视通过绿化员工队伍来提高其可持续发展绩效。因此，本研究考察了绿色人力资源管理实践在马来西亚酒店实现可持续环境绩效方面的作用，同时考虑了员工的环保态度、绿色行为和绿色工作氛围感知的关键作用。数据是从直接参与在选定酒店实施绿色实践的员工那里收集的。调查问卷用于数据收集，收到约350份回复，并通过PLS-SEM进行分析。研究结果显示，绿色人力资源管理实践（绿色培训和参与、绿色绩效管理和薪酬）对员工的环保态度产生了积极而显著的影响，进一步促进了绿色行为。研究还发现，员工的绿色行为是促进酒店可持续发展的关键因素。因此，本研究可能有助于决策者理解绿色人力资源实践在酒店业环境中绿化劳动力方面的作用。
