Abstract:
This study delves into the intricate nexus between Green Human Resource Management (GHRM) practices and environmental performance, with a particular emphasis on the moderating role of intrinsic rewards. Drawing upon data collected from managerial-level employees within the context of three to five-star hotels in Islamabad, the research meticulously examines the effects of Green Hiring (GH) and Green Training (GT) on Environmental Performance (EP). Additionally, the study explores whether Intrinsic Rewards (IR) moderate these relationships. The findings underscore the significant positive relationships between GH and EP, as well as GT and EP, highlighting the pivotal role of integrating environmental considerations into recruitment and training processes for fostering organizational environmental performance. Moreover, the results reveal the moderating influence of intrinsic rewards, suggesting that organizations can enhance the efficacy of GHRM practices in driving environmental performance by offering intrinsic rewards that motivate employees to engage in environmentally responsible behaviors. These findings underscore the imperative for organizations to adopt a holistic approach to HRM that integrates sustainability principles, thereby fostering a culture of environmental stewardship and contributing to broader sustainability goals.
