Abstract

PurposeThe green aspects in current management practices are strongly emphasized for sustainable and environment friendly business operations. Thus, building on ability-motivation-opportunity (AMO) theory, this study aims to test the mediating role of green absorptive capacity in the relationship between green human resources management (GHRM) practices (i.e., green training and development, and green performance management) and organizational citizenship behavior towards environment (OCBE).Design/methodology/approachUsing a paper-pencil survey, the authors collected data from 170 middle-tier officers working in cement industry of Pakistan. Structural equation modeling technique was applied for data analysis through Smart-PLS.FindingsResults indicated that GHRM practices significantly influence OCBE and green absorptive capacity partially mediates the relationship between GHRM practices and OCBE.Originality/valueThis study offers new theoretical and practical insights by empirically investigating the mediating role of green absorptive capacity between GHRM practices and OCBE through the lens of AMO theory. Furthermore, this study contributed in disclosing the predictors of OCBE through intervening mechanism in manufacturing sector of developing country for sustainable outcomes.

通过绿色人力资源管理实践培养角色外绿色行为:绿色吸收能力的中介作用

目的在当前的管理实践中强调绿色方面，以实现可持续和环境友好的业务运作。因此，本研究旨在以能力-动机-机会(AMO)理论为基础，检验绿色吸收能力在绿色人力资源管理(GHRM)实践(即绿色培训与开发、绿色绩效管理)与组织公民环境行为(OCBE)之间的中介作用。设计/方法/方法采用纸笔调查，作者收集了170名在巴基斯坦水泥行业工作的中层官员的数据。采用结构方程建模技术，通过Smart-PLS进行数据分析。研究结果表明，温室气体管理实践显著影响了温室气体管理实践与温室气体管理实践之间的外溢能力，绿色吸收能力在温室气体管理实践与外溢能力之间起到部分中介作用。原创性/价值本研究通过AMO理论视角实证研究绿色吸收能力在GHRM实践与OCBE之间的中介作用，提供了新的理论和实践见解。此外，本研究还有助于揭示发展中国家制造业对可持续成果的干预机制对外部性行为的预测因素。
