This study analyzes the organizational commitment and sustainable behavior at work, verifying the influence of the commitment bond in the pro-environmental actions of public employees. Therefore, a survey was conducted with 74 employees of a federal educational institution, located in the state of Piauí, northeastern Brazil. The results indicate that the affective dimension of commitment influences sustainable behavior at work. Thus, it is suggested that the bond developed by the worker through the affective basis, that is, the feeling of belonging of the individual in relation to the organization, positively influences the pro-environmental actions of the employees in the public organization analyzed.
